4. The lorry had to stay in a traffic jam. It was there for two hours. - The lorry was stuck in the traffic jam for two hours.

To express that an action lasted a long time, the Past Continuous tense is used. In this case, we describe the duration of the action by stating how long it lasted. In the given example, the lorry stayed in a traffic jam for two hours, so we can say, "The lorry was there for two hours."
