Live: A38 blocked by multi-vehicle crash

Traffic is backed up on the A38 in East Cornwall this afternoon (May 11) following an accident. It is understood three vehicles were involved in the collision which blocked the road in both directions.

There has been an accident involving three vehicles at Pound Hill in Landrake, near Saltash. This causes heavy traffic in both directions on the A38.




Inrix reports: “A38 both ways partially blocked, traffic queued due to crash, three vehicles involved at Pound Hill.”


Google Maps also reports long stretches of very slow traffic on both sides of the carriageway heading to and from Landrake. It is not yet known if they were injured in the accident.

Contact Devon and Cornwall Police for more information.
