COMMUTERS are struggling this morning with delays on the motorway and rail network.

A northbound lane between junction 6 to Worcester and junction 5 to Droitwich on the M5 was closed just after 10.30am because of a broken down lorry, and there are train delays because of a broken down freight train.

Train passengers face delays of up to 40 minute delays between Cheltenham Spa and Worcester Foregate Street stations due to train stuck at Ashchurch for Tewkesbury.

National Rail said normal service is not expected to resume until about noon. The First Great Western problem is also affecting Cross Country services.
