One of Scotland’s busiest roads was blocked following a four-car crash in Highland Perthshire on Wednesday afternoon.
The vehicles collided on the A9 Perth to Inverness road, at Dalnaspidal, at about 2.40pm.
Emergency services were called to the scene.
Nobody is believed to have been injured in the crash.
The road was blocked in both directions as the vehicles awaited recovery.
A police spokeswoman said: “It was at 2.40pm – a road crash involving four vehicles on the A9 at Dalnaspidal, at the Dalnaspidal junction.
“Emergency services are in attendance. Cars are blocking the road. It is down to a single lane.”
Traffic Scotland warned drivers that both northbound and southbound lanes were “restricted in both directions”.
The organisation tweeted: “A9 is partially blocked in both directions at Dalnaspidal due to a multi-vehicle RTC. Police are en route.”
