DRIVERS faced lengthy delays on the A34 northbound near Oxford after a collision.

Traffic was at a standstill between the Botley and Pear Tree interchanges at about 11am following the accident. 

Further details have not yet been released about the crash, which took place at Wytham.

South Central Ambulance Service spokeswoman Michelle Archer said there were no logs of the incident from paramedics, suggesting ambulance crews were not required.

Delays were fuelled on the same road in the same direction due to an unrelated broken-down vehicle near Kidlington, close to the turn-off for Islip.

Traffic appeared to be easing at midday.
