Commuters face lengthy delays this morning as part of a major dual-carriageway is closed due to a crash.
Emergency services rushed to the scene on the A1 northbound near Claypole, Lincolnshire, in the early hours of the morning. The road remains shut between Barrowby, which is near Grantham, and Balderton, several miles north.
The road is part of a major commuter route for those working in Lincoln, around 30 miles away, and Newark-on-Trent, Nottinghamshire. A diversion is in place for these motorists but the detour through the fringes of Nottinghamshire will add significant time to journeys this morning.
Lincolnshire Police and other emergency services remain at the scene, the Highways Agency said.
