A major A-road has been reopened after being closed by a collision.
The A34 was shut northbound in Hampshire between the A272 at Winchester and the A303 at Bullington, said National Highways.
It has now been reopened.
This road closure was likely to cause major disruption because the A34 was the diversion route for the closure of the M3, which is shut in both directions for work on the Junction 9 improvement scheme at Winchester.
The motorway was closed between Junction 8 and Junction 9 in both directions from 9pm on Friday, January 30 and is due to remain closed until 6am on Monday so steel beams for the new roundabout at Junction 9 can be installed on the north side of the junction.
