A "complex recovery" operation was carried out after a lorry overturned on a roundabout in Nottinghamshire.
The A46 was closed northbound between the A617 near Newark and the A1 at Winthorpe at about 22:00 BST on Tuesday, according to Nottinghamshire Fire and Rescue Service (NFRS).
National Highways said the northbound closure was lifted at about 09:15 BST on Wednesday, but a southbound closure was put in place, which reduced to one lane at about 12:45.
The road fully reopened shortly after 13:00, a spokesperson said.
NFRS said crews had made the area safe and helped contain an oil spill.
