3 vehicles crash on A1 in Yorkshire – resulting in delays
Emergency services were on the scene between junctions 45 and 44 near the A64 junction, close to Hazelwood, on Wednesday (July 15).
West Yorkshire Police said the crash was a “damage only collision involving three vehicles”, meaning no one was injured.
The AA first reported the crash at 10.30am, saying the collision had closed two lanes of the A1(M) southbound with drivers facing hour-long delays.
National Highways confirmed at 12.15pm that the road had fully reopened with delays starting to ease.
By 2pm the AA was no longer reporting delays in the area.
The crash came days after a collision elsewhere on the A1(M) caused a “significant spillage” which resulted in delays for drivers, according to National Highways.
One lane of the A1 southbound was closed between junctions 38 for Wakefield and 39 for Doncaster after the crash on Sunday.
The incident on Sunday resulted in 45-minute delays and meant part of the A1 had to be resurfaced, National Highways said.
