POLICE officers in Widnes have re-opened Ditton Road after a car had overturned.
The road had been closed in both directions and there was queueing traffic due to an overturned car at A562 Speke Road / A562 (Ditton Roundabout) just before the roundabout.
There are also roadworks in the area adding to congestion.
A Cheshire Fire spokesman confirmed the road had now been 'made safe'.
Ditton road fully closed. Avoid the area and be patient when you meet the delays due to congestion. We don’t want any more crashes. Thanks
