A crash near York Hospital has caused traffic problems this evening (Wednesday).

The accident happened on Wigginton Road between the hospital and Crichton Avenue late in the afternoon.

It partially blocked the road and saw traffic queuing right back along Gillygate and up to St Leonard’s Place.

One YorkMix Radio listener told us at 5pm that he’d been stuck in the traffic for more than 40 minutes, and some vehicles on their way into town had been turned back.

According to York Travel on Twitter, the crash was cleared at about 5pm, but there were still lengthy delays as traffic dispersed.
