There was widespread traffic disruption in Shepherd's Bush this Wednesday (22 June) afternoon due an accident involving a lorry on the Vale.
The heavy goods vehicle appears to have jackknifed and its trailer overturned blocking traffic both ways at about 3.50pm. Police closed the road from Winchester Street to the Askew Road.
The road was reopened at around 8.30pm and the latest reports are that traffic in the area is returning to normal.
There are no indications at this stage of any other vehicle being involved in a collision with the lorry or any persons being hurt.
