A huge fire has torn through a recycling plant in Salford, creating a plume of black smoke visible for miles around.
Footage shows 40 firefighters battling the blaze, which caused traffic to come to a standstill on the M60.
Manchester Fire Service wrote on Twitter: "The heat from the #cliftonfire is so intense it melted the letters on this fire engine."
The blaze has engulfed the plant in Clifton and "involves a large quantity of recycled plastics", according to the fire service.
Wayne Shields, Greater Manchester Fire and Rescue Service area manager, told the Manchester Evening News firefighters were confronted by a "molten river of plastic" as they tackled the blaze.
Eight fire engines are fighting the blaze and people have been told to keep their windows shut due to the plume of smoke.
No one has been injured.
A spokeswoman from the fire service said they had surrounded the blaze and were spraying jets on adjacent buildings to try and prevent it from spreading.
