The A1(M) has been closed in both directions this morning, as officers dealt with an incident on a bridge.
The closure was in place between Junction 5 and Junction 6 for Welwyn Garden City from around 7am.
The road is now in the process of reopening, but congestion is expected to continue for a short time.
