Crash closes A586 Garstang Road between Thornton, Cleveleys, Poulton and Great Eccleston

Officers closed Garstang Road (A586) both ways after a crash involving two cars near Windy Harbour traffic lights at around 7.55am.

The road was closed from the junction with A585 Fleetwood Road in Larbreck to Blackpool Old Road in Great Eccleston.

The closure led to a rush hour queue of traffic along Garstang New Road back to Little Singleton.

Police said the crash was ‘damage-only’ and no one was injured.

The road was blocked off by police whilst the cars were recovered, with traffic diverted along Fleetwood Road and the B5269 through Elswick.
