A live traffic camera image closer to the scene shows incident support at the scene, with cars able to pass using the right-hand lane. It is currently unclear how many vehicles were involved or if there have been any reported injuries.
Traffic is queued back to the slip-road at Millerhill with motorists travelling westbound expected to see delays until the vehicles involved have been cleared.
A Police Scotland spokesperson said: "Around 1.45pm we received a report of a crash involving a vehicle and motorbike on the A720 Sheriffhall."
