Lorry crash on A34 near Didcot causes rush hour delay

The crash happened on the northbound carriageway just before the Milton Interchange near Didcot^[1].

Police attended the incident closing one lane which also disrupted the A4130 from Didcot and roads towards Milton Hill.

Drivers were brought down to an average speed of 10 mph between the Chilton Interchange and the Marcham Interchange while the incident was dealt with.

Delays on the A34 were made worse after a vehicle broke down on the A34 southbound at South Hinkey blocking one lane.

Last week, emergency services rushed to a two-vehicle collision during Thursday morning’s rush hour on the A34 between junction nine of the M40 and Weston-on-the-Green.

The driver of the car which crashed into the hedges managed to crawl out of the vehicle before the blue light services arrived at the scene. 

It is understood there were no serious injuries and an eyewitness said the car which came off the road was a Tesla.
