One man was left needing treatment following an accident which caused hour-long delays on the M54 on Wednesday.
The accident involved a minibus and saw the exit slip road on the M54 West, Junction 3, for Cosford and Newport closed while emergency services attended the scene.
There were reports of five miles of congestion between Junction 2 for Wolverhampton and Junction 3, adding an expected hour onto journey times.
A spokesperson for West Midlands Ambulance Services said: "We were called at 5.06pm on Wednesday to reports of a patient in a minibus on the M54 between Junctions 2 and 3.
"We sent one ambulance, a paramedic officer and the Midlands Air Ambulance Critical Care Car to the scene.
