There was a bad crash on Ouse Bridge on the m62 this morning (J36-7), a lorry carrying a mobile home and a car were involved. Road still closed and expected to be closed well into tomorrow. I hope all involved were ok, glad i've been off today though as if Ouse Bridge is closed it causes chaos on Boothferry Bridge.

Google maps shows it still closed both directions and heavy traffic on both side of Boothferry bridge.

I used to live in Goole and have traveled that route a million times, was it windy today at all?

I'd wondered that, they usually close Ouse Bridge to high siders in strong winds.

Looks like the wagon with the mobile home on the back crossed over to the opposite carriageway. The photos on BBC news show the mobile home sat on the road.
