The M1 in Leicestershire has reopened after a crash between two lorries, which caused a fire that damaged the road.
Police were called to the scene, near junction 20 at Lutterworth, shortly before 05:30 GMT on Monday.
The road was closed in both directions between junctions 20 and 21, but the northbound carriageway reopened three hours later.
Officers said the southbound carriageway remained closed for the rest of the day while the vehicles were recovered and resurfacing work was completed.
