Drivers are warned to expect delays on the M1 this morning following a three car smash.

Traffic was held while the cars were recovered from lane three (of three) alongside the entry slip road.

There was also congestion on the M1 to J8 A414 in Hemel Hempstead.

However, all lanes have since been re-opened.

It is not known yet if anybody sustained any injuries.
