Part of the M8 has been closed due to an emergency incident at junction 27 westbound at Hillington.
Emergency services are at the scene of a road traffic collision and it comes as the latest to hit Scotland’s roads over the weekend.
Eight people have been killed on Scotland’s roads since Friday but it’s unclear at present if anyone has been injured in this incident.
Traffic Scotland shared details on social media and revealed police and ambulance services were in attendance at Junction 27 and warned that traffic was picking up in the area.
They were urging anyone nearby to take an alternative route in a bid to avoid the incident.
On Friday, three people were killed in a crash in Falkirk before another person died in an incident on Girvan on Saturday.
Sunday saw even more devastation on the roads as one person died on the A83 before three were killed in the borders in an incident involving two motorbikes.
A police statement said: "The M8 is currently closed westbound following a road crash near to junction 27 at Hillington. Drivers are asked to take an alternative route while the vehicles are recovered."
Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers. We also hope it will help the comments section fulfil its promise as a part of Scotland's conversation with itself.
We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.
That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
In the past, the journalist’s job was to collect and distribute information to the audience. Technology means that readers can shape a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you on heraldscotland.com
