Hours of heavy traffic on A483 following crash near Posthouse Roundabout

Update: We are told the road has fully reopened and is flowing normally.

Update 7:15pm: Recovery is underway however there is still long queues northwards due to the crash. Many have reported being stuck in the queues for almost 2 hours at the peak of rush hour. Thanks to El Monty for the below pictures.

Original information below…

Motorists are being advised on long delays on the A483 following a collision near the Posthouse Roundabout.

The crash has taken place northbound towards Chester, with one person telling us that the road is down to one lane.

As a result traffic is backing up from the Posthouse Roundabout to Pulford, and from Rossett to the Posthouse Roundabout.

The incident has left a black van across the carriageway, and a small red car with front and back damage.

More information when we have it. Thanks to Matt for the top picture.
