Major Smash Shuts A303 in Wiltshire

A serious crash has slammed the brakes on the A303 in Wiltshire, shutting both eastbound and westbound lanes between the A350 near Chicklade and the A36 at Deptford. Emergency crews, including Wiltshire Police, Fire, and Ambulance services, are on the scene right now.

Road Closure to Last Through the Night

The route is expected to remain closed until at least 1am as authorities clear the wreckage and work to keep everyone safe. Drivers are urged to stay clear and expect delays.

Follow These Diversions to Avoid the Chaos

For anyone heading east, follow the A350 towards Warminster. At the A36 roundabout, take the third exit. This detour guides you through Knook and Codford St Mary before you can rejoin the A303 at Deptford.
