Motorists using the M1 in Derbyshire today are set to face delays – with part of the route being hit by flooding.
Traffic monitoring site Inrix has reported that flooding is causing disruption on the M1 northbound at J28, which connects the motorway to the A38 between Alfreton and Mansfield.
One lane is currently closed on that part of the carriageway, leading to congestion along the route.
