THE M60 has reopened after a collision and a fuel spill.
A car and a lorry collided at around 9am this morning and diesel fuel spilled over the carriageway.
The incident left the motorway closed anti-clockwise between junctions 19 and 18 at Heaton Park for more than five hours.
A large spillage had to be cleared and a lamppost repaired resulting in long tail backs before lanes reopened just after 2pm.
