A major road between Greater Manchester and South Yorkshire has been closed completely following a collision.
Traffic is building and drivers are being told to 'expect delays' around the A628 Woodhead Pass, which is shut in both directions due to a crash involving a car and a van. The incident took place between Manchester Road (Tintwistle) and B6105 (Glossop Turn Off, Crowden).
There is also congestion to roads through Hadfield, Padfield and Glossop as traffic diverts from the closure, according to online traffic reporting system Inrix.
