Emergency services, including West Yorkshire Fire and West Yorkshire Police were on the scene throughout the night as work continued to contain the fire. The road remained closed throughout much of this mornings peak traffic period. A spokesperson for the West Yorkshire Fire & Rescue Service said: “We were called at 2.
We sent three crews, Pontefract, Castleford and Featherstone, who extinguished a fire in a lorry. “All crews had left the scene by 04.48am.
