Police attend multiple collisions along the A9

Police were out in force again yesterday following a series of crashes along the A9.

Officers were first dispatched to Muir of Ord following a four-vehicle collision at the Tore roundabout.

The incident involving a Ford Cougar, a lorry and two other vehicles unfolded shortly before 1pm leading to lengthy tailbacks.

The force were first made aware of the incident at 12.55pm dispatching multiple officers to the scene.

The occupants of the vehicles did not sustain any serious injuries with the road fully reopening by 3.30pm.

As motorists faced delays and lengthy tailbacks, officers attended at the Kessock Bridge following two further collisions.

Officers received reports of the incidents on the northbound carriageway around 3pm.

Two cars sustained extensive damage following the collisions which added to the  exiting tailbacks along the trunk road.

The vehicles were eventually moved off the road shortly before 4pm, with fellow motorists able to pass the site of the wreckage with care.

The incidents come just one day after officers were conveyed to three separate collisions in less than two hours, resulting in long tailbacks.
