Traffic Alert: A1 northbound closed in Lincolnshire

The A1 in Lincolnshire is closed northbound between the A52 (Barrowby) and B6326 (Fernwood).

Highways England says the closure was caused by an incident involving an HGV early this morning.

There is currently around 3 miles of slow moving traffic on the approach to Barrowby junction. Work to clear the scene is currently in progress, but drivers are advised to allow extra time to complete their journeys.

A diversion is available:

Follow the “Hollow Circle” diversion symbol via the A52 westbound to the A46 at Saxondale, then head north on the A46 to rejoin the A1 at Brownhills.
