Frank Perkins Parkway reopened following police incident

The road had been closed since 4am because a woman was on the bridge.

However, she made her way off the bridge, and was placed in an ambulance. The A1139 at Eastfield was closed northbound at Sainsburys turnoff and southbound from Eye, which combined with other incidents on roads in Peterborough caused gridlock in the morning rush hour.
