The M40 in Oxfordshire has severe delays northbound due to a collision between J10 (Cherwell Valley Services) and J11 (Banbury).

The problems were caused by a collision after 11am that included two vehicles. One of them, a jack-knifed lorry, initially blocked all three northbound lanes. Since then one lane north has reopened.

This is causing delays of up to 2 hours above usual journey times and congestion is building between J10 and J11 approaching the incident.
