There are still long delays on both sides of the river Tamar following a multi-vehicle crash at St Budeaux on the outskirts of Plymouth this morning.

Commuters travelling from South East Cornwall into Devon via the Tamar Bridge are being warned to expect lengthy delays following multi-vehicle accident on the A38 just on the Devon side.

There are also long delays on the Cornish side at the Carkeel Roundabout at Saltash and onto the A388 to Callington.

The Plymouth-bound A38 remains closed at St Budeaux.

Devon and Cornwall Police had earlier reported a collision involving two vehicles on the eastbound A38 Expressway between St Budeaux Junction and Weston Mill.

Motorists have been urged to avoid the area if possible and allow extra time for their journeys.

At 9.35am the eastbound section of the A38 was closed to allow recovery of vehicles.
