A STRETCH of the A494 was closed in both directions this afternoon following a crash.

The incident closed the road between Bala and the Druid traffic lights, Traffic Wales said.

A North Wales Police spokesperson said: "The A494 in GLANRAFON, CORWEN is currently closed due to a road traffic incident - this is by property called HENGAER ISAF. Please avoid the area for time being."

At around 4.20pm, Traffic Wales issued an update to confirm the crash has been cleared and the road has reopened.
