Due to a major crash involving trucks on the A69 (Corbridge bypass), traffic was diverting through Corbridge around 2pm.
The bottleneck is the stretch of Princes Street alongside the Angel Inn.
Anything that enters Corbridge from the north wanting to travel south or east or west has to pass through that section of road.
As a result the TENs and the 687 have experienced significant delays (as an example, the 687 took 20 minutes to get from Stagshaw Road to Hill Street).
