Motorists are caught up in a two-mile-long queue on the A50 following a crash. The collision has occurred on the eastbound carriageway through Longton.

And traffic monitoring system Inrix is reporting the smash has left the road 'partially blocked'. Meanwhile a live map from Google shows traffic queueing back towards Sideway.

On its map and National Highways says traffic has come to a stand-still.

We have contacted the emergency services for statements.
