“Congestion to Boongate heading southbound and back to the Hampton Roundabout heading north. 
“In the construction area. A lane closure is in place.”

Cambridgeshire police had said earlier on social media: “Please be aware that there is an accident on Frank Perkins Parkway, just after junction 5 on the westbound carriageway.

“If possible, please find an alternative route.”

Traffic issues around the collision are likely to be made more difficult by roadworks on that stretch of the parkway.
