Emergency services rush to scene on Edinburgh City Bypass after crash

Emergency services are at the scene of a crash on the Edinburgh City Bypass this morning.

The collision happened at around 8:30am this morning heading westbound at Straition.

One lane is blocked following the incident and it is understood that police are currently in attendance.

The crash is adding to existing rush-hour congestion this morning, which was partly caused by an earlier broken down vehicle.

Live traffic cameras show long tailbacks on the busy motorway with heavy traffic queuing back to Sherriffhall Roundabout.
