Expect Delays
The A69 between Northumberland and Cumbria is closed eastbound due to a serious collision at the Greenhead junction (B630). The closure is in place between the A6071 at Brampton and the A686 at Haydon Bridge.
Northumberland Police are conducting a collision investigation at scene.
In addition this incident required the attendance of multiple units from Cumbria Police, Northumberland Fire & Resuce, North East Ambulance Service and a helicopter from the Great North Air Ambulance Service.
We currently cannot provide a timescale for the likely duration of the eastbound closure to remain in place.
The road was initially closed in both directions, however the westbound carriageway re-opened at 3.15pm.
Diversion Route
There is no official, signed diversion route for this section of the A69. Road users intending on travelling in either direction between Haydon Bridge and Brampton are advised to plan ahead and use an alternate route.
Road users approaching the closure will be diverted off on to local routes in the area.
