A CRASH on the A419 blocked one lane of the dual carriageway during rush hour.

Traffic queued southbound after the accident happened at the Cricklade turn-off for Calcutt Street at around 6.30am.

There was reportedly extensive barrier damage as well as a broken down car in the queue, which at one point tailed back to South Cerney.

A Wiltshire Police spokesman said: “At around 6am this morning (22/09) officers assisted with a broken down vehicle on the A419 close to the Cricklade exit.

“While they were dealing with that, at around 6.40am they were alerted to a road traffic collision nearby.

“This was a three-vehicle collision involving two white vans and a silver Volkswagen.

“Nobody appears to have been injured, but the road is currently blocked due to debris and damage to the barriers.”

The road fully reopened at around 10am.
