Google Maps data showed traffic was at a standstill for nearly two miles.

A witness said: “Traffic is moving slowly between the Myrekirk Roundabout and the Swallow Roundabout.

“The queues of crawling traffic stretch back well beyond the Myrekirk approach on the Kingsway.

“Merging traffic on the Swallow approach is causing all the delays.”
