Chaos on Hampshire’s A34 as Overturned Lorry Closes Key Road
A34 Southbound Shut After HGV Crash
Motorists have been hit with hefty delays after an overturned lorry forced the closure of the A34 southbound in Hampshire. The lane is closed between the A343 (Wash Common Interchange) and the A303 (Bullington Cross Interchange) as recovery teams work to clear the smashed HGV.
Rush Hour Impact Minimized, But Delays Loom
The crash happened early this morning, but recovery was held off until after rush hour to keep at least one lane open during peak travel. Despite this, traffic is now backed up as the recovery operation continues.
Traffic Diverted, Drivers Urged to Avoid Area
Drivers are being rerouted via the A343, A3093, and A303 through Andover before rejoining the A34. The closure is expected to last for hours, so motorists are urged to seek alternative routes to avoid the snarls.
