## Resource

M65 in Lancashire shut down both ways Sunday night around 8 PM—not a traffic jam, but a police-led welfare concern between Junction 3 and 4 near Blackburn and Darwen. National Highways warned of 10-minute delays and a mile of congestion, urging drivers to allow extra time and expect a diversion. Lancashire Police asked the public to avoid the area and promised updates. Inrix confirmed the closure spanned from Junction 3 (A674 Chorley Road) to Junction 4 (A666 Earcroft Way). Authorities were actively working to resolve the situation and keep everyone informed. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
