West Green Road in Wood Green has been closed in both directions after a crash this evening.
The road in north London was shut following an accident, with the closure in place between Clinton Road and La Rose Lane.
Traffic sensors are showing the road is currently shut both ways, and drivers in the area are facing disruption as a result.
Very little is known about the crash at this stage. No details have yet been confirmed about the vehicles involved, whether anyone was injured, or which emergency services are at the scene — and the cause of the crash has not been confirmed either.
West Green Road is a busy route through Wood Green, running close to the area’s shops and homes, and the closure is likely to affect traffic across the surrounding streets while it remains in place.
This live blog has now closed. West Green Road remains closed in both directions between Clinton Road and La Rose Lane, with queueing traffic building. Further updates are expected in the morning.

Road closures after crashes have caused disruption elsewhere in London in recent days. Three people were arrested after a pursuit ended in the closure of the M40 near the M25, while the M25 is facing a week of planned overnight closures for roadworks.
