The westbound carriageway was closed as a result between junction 45 Ynysforgan and junction 46 Llangyfelach, according to Traffic Wales. They were asking people to avoid the area and traffic cameras showed queues in the area.

The carriageway completely re-opened just after 10am and congestion had eased quickly.
