Leeds road ‘closed’ as motorists warned of slow traffic near M1 junction
A road is ‘closed’ in Leeds as motorists face disruption to start the week.
Drivers are being warned of slow traffic at the junction between Pontefract Lane and the M1 Cross Green on Monday (March 23). It is causing some disruption heading into the afternoon.
On its website, AA Traffic warns: “Road closed and slow traffic due to crash on A63 Pontefract Lane Eastbound from Aire Valley Road to M1 J45 (Leeds Cross Green).”
The disruption was first reported around 11.30am, according to the AA’s online traffic map.
The Yorkshire Evening Post has contacted West Yorkshire Police for further details on the incident.
It comes after a broken-down lorry caused two lanes to be closed on the M62 this morning. Drivers faced delays of over 40 minutes during the morning commute.
