Damage caused to barriers caused a major road to be shut for 22 hours after a multi-car collision.

The eastbound A47 was shut at King's Lynn, Norfolk between the A148 and A10 Hardwick roundabout at 22:00 GMT on Friday.

National Highways said work to clear "large amounts" of debris and an oil spillage continued until shortly after 20:00 on Saturday.

Motorists had been advised to seek alternative routes during the disruption.
