Lorry fire causes delays on A5 this morning in Milton Keynes

    There was a delay on the A5 both way around Kelly's Kitchen roundabout after a lorry fire and diesel spill earlier today (12/04).

    Buckinghamshire Fire and Rescue Service attended the scene after 10.30 am this morning to reports of a lorry on fire.

    Two crews from West Ashland station attended and used one hose reel, dry powder extinguisher and environmental protection kit.
