There has been a crash on the M5
A crash on the M5 has now been cleared but heavy bank holiday traffic remains.
The incident, involving two cars, took place between junctions 17 and 18 on the southbound carriageway.
One lane was initially closed.
Traffic is still heavy back to Thornbury (junction 14) as holiday-makers travel south.
