A road has been shut this afternoon (Tuesday) after a collision involving two vehicles – with one ending up in a ditch.

Police were called to the A505 between Royston and Baldock after a crash on the southbound carriageway near to the Little Chef roundabout at about 1.20pm.

One of the vehicles came to a stop in a nearby ditch, but no one was injured.

A rolling road block has been put in place but it is expected to reopen shortly once the vehicles are recovered.
