"The M40 southbound remains closed between J8A in Oxford and J6 in Watlington after a large spillage of bitumen from the tanker damaged the road, National Highways said. National Highways has warned travellers to expect travel delays as work continues to clean up the spillage from the crash, which took place at around 7.45pm on Monday night. On Tuesday morning, it said: There is around 3 miles of congestion on approach to the closure which is adding about half an hour to normal journey times."

Separately, a tanker collided with a car and spilled a large quantity of bitumen, damaging the M40 southbound between J8A in Oxford and J6 in Watlington. Emergency services and specialist teams contained the spill, a replacement tanker transferred the remaining load, and lanes remain closed for planing, resurfacing and pumping operations, causing several miles of congestion and extended journey times.
