The A43 in Northamptonshire was shut for more than five hours after a lorry crashed through the central reservation near Silverstone.

It happened at about 10:00 BST close to the Syresham junction, with a closure taking place between the A421 and the A5 at Towcester.

National Highways said the lorry, which was resting on the barrier, had since been recovered and repairs were completed.

The road has been reopened.
