A TWO car crash brought a busy Glasgow motorway to a standstill during rush hour.
The collision was reported around 8.07am on the M77 northbound junction one at Dumbreck.
Motorists were warned delays could last for 15 minutes as a TRISS team battled to move the vehicles which are blocking the second lane.

The busy motorway was reduced to one lane as motorists were forced to merge to avoid the site.
Traffic Scotland shared an image of the site showing lengthy tailbacks behind the scene of the crash.
The site has since been cleared but traffic remains slow and queues are back to junction four Crookfur.
*CLEARED* ️08:14 ⌚️#M77 N/B J1 Dumbreck - Lane 2 of 2 is now CLEARED ✅after an RTC was restricting the carriageway. Thanks to TRISS 👍
