"Recovery is required for both vehicles so the road is not yet clear.”

The road reopened shortly before 5.30pm.

There had been queueing traffic causing delays of up to 10 minutes in both directions, according to AA traffic reports.

It had also caused Stragglethorpe Lane and High Street, Brant Broughton, either side of the A17 junction, to be closed as well due to the location of the collision.
