TEMPORARY traffic lights are in place on the A49 near the Tall Trees crossroads following an earlier crash.

A lorry has collided with a wall which runs over Whitely Brook, on the A49 Tarporley Road between the A533 Runcorn Road crossroads and the Red Lane junction at Lower Whitley.

The road is partially blocked both ways with queuing traffic, and temporary lights are in place until the situation can be assessed and the truck recovered.

Indications are that this won't be until after rush hour.
