Police have said drivers should expect slight delays after an incident involving a lorry partially blocked the A495 from Ellesmere to Welshampton on Monday.

A photograph, shared by Shrewsbury police, shows a broken down lorry on the road, with the trailer having become dislodged from the cab.

Police were on scene at 2.30pm. Traffic data showed a small delay around the incident, as drivers were forced to navigate the blockage.
