A JACKKNIFED lorry has left a Herefordshire road blocked, with drivers told by police to find another route.

West Mercia Police shared a picture of the articulated lorry which officers said had jackknifed near to Ross-on-Wye Golf Club.

The picture showed the white lorry, with a blue trailer, blocking the B4221 at Gorsley, near the south Herefordshire town.

Traffic website Inrix said the B4221 was both ways blocked due to the lorry between the M50 and the Kempley turn off.

It said traffic was "coping well" in the area on Thursday afternoon (September 9), with West Mercia Police telling drivers to take another route.
