Multiple Road Closures Across UK Due to Accidents

The A1(M) in County Durham has been under a near six-month lane closure due to repeated damage to a bridge, first struck by a vehicle on September 27. Despite repairs completed in December 2024, the bridge was hit again soon after, prompting another round of repairs that are expected to take place in the coming weeks. Meanwhile, the A417 in Gloucestershire is closed northbound between Cirencester and Gloucester due to a collision involving a car and a lorry, causing significant traffic delays. Drivers are advised to follow diversion routes provided by National Highways. In Milton Keynes, police have closed Marlborough Street due to a collision, urging motorists to find alternative routes. Lanes on the M61 have also been closed for vehicle recovery, with delays anticipated for drivers in the area.
