J31/J32 M6 truck fire

This the truck that was on fire on the M6 late last night, Information was that it was carrying aerosols and car wax. It certainly is going some.
Required 4 lanes of c/way stripping and resurfacing today.

3.5 ■■■■■■■ hours it took me to get past the closure, from Wigan, this morning :imp:

How come they can resurface loads in no time at all after a lorry melts half the road but when it’s a scheduled resurfacing it takes them 4 years and several million over budget? :unamused:
