The crane, a Liebherr LTC 1050-3.1 city type All Terrain from the Ainscough Crane Hire fleet was travelling in the west bound lanes when the superstructure burst into flames. The east bound lanes were also closed due to the smoke levels and fear of an explosion. The regional National Highways agency said there was a substantial spillage from the incident.
We understand that no one was hurt in the incident.
