Police have advised drivers to seek an alternative route after a crash in Belfast on Sunday afternoon.

And motorists are also reminded that the Antrim Road in north Belfast remains closed in both directions between Alexandra Park Avenue and the Cavehill Road and Limestone Road due to the collapse of a building wall.
