The A494 is shut Between Llanuwchllyn and Rhydymain - the main route between Bala Lake and Barmouth and Dolgellau - following a collision reported by the service just after 7.30am today.

A statement posted to social media platform X, formerly known as Twitter, warned that the road was closed in both directions with diversions in place.
