West Midlands Police set up a scene on the M5 Motoway between Quinton and Oldbury on Thursday 3 April after a body was found on the carriageway.

The scene is not near a bridge or footpath.

Queues of traffic lined the Northbound side as Southbound vehicles passed the screens placed to block view.

WMP Statement: ‘We are at the scene of two serious incidents on the M5 and the motorway is currently closed in both directions near Oldbury/Quinton.

‘It is closed northbound and southbound between J3 at Quinton and J2 at Oldbury after a body was found in the carriageway at just after 10am today.

‘Following a separate collision involving a motorcyclist, the motorway is now closed northbound between J3 at Quinton and the M6.

‘The closures are expected to be in place for some time and drivers are advised to find alternative routes.’
