A Swindon road is blocked after a car and a lorry towing a portacabin collided.

Police were called to the scene at around 3pm following reports of a silver car involved in a minor crash with a wide load.

It happened on Shaftesbury Avenue, where the road joins with Marlowe Avenue, and has completely blocked the road.

Police are in attendance, with officers officially closing the road between Tyndale Gardens and Holy Family Catholic Church.

 

A witness told Wiltshire 999s that the car was moving at the time of the crash, not parked.

Due to the school run, there are significant delays in the area.

No one’s believed to have been injured and it’s not clear who was at fault.
