The northbound carriageway remained closed this morning while officers carried out investigations, with the northbound exit of the Creswell roundabout blocked by a police car. This led to lengthy queues from Yarlet Bank to the Creswell roundabout from Stone.
Anyone who witnessed the collision is asked to contact Staffordshire Police on 101, quoting incident number 80 of October 4.

We need signs on this road to get drivers to pass wide. They always try to squeeze through. I;m sure it’s the same on many dual carriageways.
