Live updates as Freezinghill Lane is closed in both directions after crash

A serious collision near the village of Lansdown is causing major delays[1] in Somerset this afternoon. The crash reportedly happened north of Lansdown, in Freezinghill Lane, which appears to have been closed by emergency services close to The Battlefields and south of the junction with Bath Road. It is unclear at the moment how many vehicles are involved in the collision or whether anybody has been injured at this time.

Traffic monitoring service Inrix says that the road is blocked in both directions and that long queues are forming in the area, causing problems near the A46. Inrix reports: "Freezinghill Lane in both directions blocked, queueing traffic due to accident near The Battlefields. Congestion to the A46 as traffic attempts to avoid the delays."
