The M90 motorway in Fife has been blocked just north of Inverkeithing after an army truck fell off the back of a lorry.

The southbound carriageway is completely closed with queueing traffic due to the debris on the road as well as the accident, affecting people travelling to Edinburgh for the festival.

The lorry overturned between J3 A92 (Halbeath) and J2 A823(M) Pitreavie and there are tailbacks to J3 (Halbeath).

There are diversions in place with traffic approaching the A92 Southbound being forced off at Crossgates Roundabout while recovery operations take place.
