North Lincolnshire motorway reopens early after repair work

The closure was to allow repairs to a bridge across the motorway that was hit by a lorry

Repair work on a damaged motorway bridge has been completed ahead of schedule, National Highways said.

Part of the M180 in North Lincolnshire was due to be shut from Friday until Monday morning to allow repairs to a crossing that was hit by a lorry.

The closure between Junctions 2 and 3 was to allow the removal of a bridge beam that was damaged when the bridge near Outmill was struck last year.

National Highways said the work had finished and the motorway was open.
