THERE'S heavy traffic on the M5 Northbound between Burnham-on-Sea and Weston-Super-Mare this afternoon.

It's because of a vehicle fire earlier on today, which saw two lanes of the motorway closed.

The lanes have all now reopened but traffic is still heavy. 

Two fire engines from Burnham-on-Sea and Bridgwater were sent to deal with the vehicle fire, which was well alight on the hard shoulder.

Firefighters used foam to tackle the fire.
