A ROAD near Bala was closed today for several hours after a van overturned.

The vehicle, a Vauxhall Vivaro, was moved to the side of the road while its recovery was being organised, but even so delays continued.

North Wales Police asked drivers to avoid the area. A spokesperson said: “Motorists are asked to avoid the B4401 at Llandderfel while recovery is being organised. Thankfully there are no serious injuries."
