Earlier today, a lorry crashed into a power line and a tree^[1] at Raymonds Hill on the A35 and it’s understood the closure is connected with this incident. 

The A35 had to be closed for a recovery operation and it’s had a major knock-on effect on traffic heading west.

Devon and Cornwall Police say the road closure was lifted at 12.30pm.
