The bypass was closed northbound at Rippon Way and at Stirling Corner, where traffic remains slow.

A BMW and a Ford Fiesta were recovered from the scene along with a bin lorry.

One person was injured in the collision, and the Highways Agency was called to deal with a diesel spillage and ice on the carriageway.
