Congestion is back to Funtham's Lane after the lorry shed its load of jacket potatoes this morning, Saturday September 8.

Police are at the scene but traffic is very heavy on routes between Peterborough and Whittlesey as a result of the crash.

Motorists are advised to avoid the area as it will take some time to clear the road.
