Emergency crews are tackling a building fire in Holloway this morning, with one lane of Holloway Road closed southbound.
One lane of Holloway Road southbound is closed at Tufnell Park Road, and emergency vehicles are occupying a lane opposite the Odeon.
This is a developing story. Updates will be added to the live blog below as the situation changes.
Holloway Road is a busy route through north London, and the closure is affecting traffic through the area this morning. Traffic is reported to be coping well, with only minor delays in the area, though drivers using the road should still expect some delays while the lane stays shut.
No details have yet been given about the building involved, the cause of the fire, or how long the closure will last. No injuries have been reported.
The live blog will be updated with any statement from the London Fire Brigade, news on when the lane reopens, and any impact on bus services using the road.
Holloway Road runs north through the area from the station towards Archway, and the junction with Tufnell Park Road sits on one of its busiest stretches.
Lane closures elsewhere in London today include the M25 between junctions 11 and 12, where lanes were shut after a serious crash this morning, and Selhurst Road in Croydon, which is due to close for a month from December while a Victorian railway bridge is replaced.
