The motorway has been closed again
The M8 motorway has been closed in both directions for the second time in a matter of hours - after five cars were involved in a pile-up shortly after police had stood down from a prior incident.
Traffic Scotland has confirmed that airborne medics are heading to the scene. The traffic network monitor said on Twitter: "Traffic is now being held in BOTH directions on the M8 between J4 and J4A following an earlier collision. This is to allow a Heli-Med to attend the scene. Traffic stationary at the moment on approach."
The force added: "There is already slow traffic following an earlier incident. Please use alternative routes and avoid the area." Traffic cameras show vehicles being diverted from the carriageway while the collision is dealt with.
