Multi-vehicle crash forced closure on busy route in and out of Northampton
A crash involving a number of vehicles forced the closure of a busy route in and out of town.
Drivers faced long delays on the Flore Bypass on Wednesday afternoon (June 3) following a crash involving several vehicles.


At around 3pm, both sides of the carriageway were blocked with drivers being forced to turn around in both directions.
The busy bypass – which skirts around the village of Flore and runs parallel with the M1 – was later closed by Northamptonshire Police for a period of time.
Traffic reports are yet to confirm the road is open in both directions, however eyewitnesses suggest the route is back up and running.
Northamptonshire Police has been contacted for comment.
