The family of a man who died after a fatal collision on the M6 in Cumbria have paid tribute to him.

51-year-old Adam Gibb, who was on-duty as a Highways England traffic officer, was killed when a black Mercedes left the carriageway and collided with him and a fellow colleague.

The two men were at the side of the carriageway dealing with a separate incident.

Adam Gibb's family have said he "was a fantastic dad and a wonderful husband and will be deeply missed".

The second Highways England officer was transferred to James Cook hospital with serious injuries. He remains in a critical but stable condition.
