Highways England said the incident had been cleared but motorists were warned to still expect delays and advised to avoid the area.
The incident followed an earlier one yesterday (Monday) when a heavy lorry crashed into a railway bridge on Chester Road, near Sutton Weaver.
The vehicle overturned after the collision and police had to close Chester Road between the Sutton Weaver swing bridge and the junction for the A533 Southern Expressway.
Delays continued for some time while Network Rail checked the railway bridge for damage.
