Motorway collision involving two lorries
M1 southbound between junction 15 (Northampton) and Newport Pagnell Service Area
One appliance and crew from Newport Pagnell, one from Broughton, one from West Ashland, two from Mereway and an officer attended. No-one was trapped. About 100 litres of engine oil spilled on to the carriageway.
