The accident between Junctions 8 and 9 occurred just after 3.30pm and blocked two lanes, causing delays of more than an hour from Junction six for the Aston Expressway.

Steve Parry, a West Midlands Ambulance Service spokesman, said: "A man believed to be in his twenties and a woman in her fifties were treated at the scene by ambulance crews.

"The patients were treated for minor injuries and transferred to Walsall Manor Hospital as a precautionary measure for further assessment."

Both lanes have now reopened.
