Big fire shuts down M1 southbound between junctions 28 and 26 near Nottingham, sending smoke across the motorway. Seven fire appliances raced to contain the blaze as traffic ground to a halt—especially around junction 26. Authorities urged drivers to avoid the area and find alternate routes, even banning drones over the scene for safety. After hours of work, lanes 3 and 4 reopened, but 1 and 2 stayed closed while crews finished dampening and investigating. Emergency services kept things moving, slowly restoring normal flow.
