BRETTELL Lane has been re-opened after a manhole cover collapsed and a crash occurred.

The crash took place near the junction with Collis Street, but all cars involved have now been recovered.

Dudley Council said the road, which was closed for less than two hours, is no longer closed, however traffic is still being controlled due to the issue with the collapsed manhole cover.

A council spokeswoman said: "There is still an ongoing issue with a collapsed manhole cover and traffic is being controlled by the police to allow vehicles to pass this location safely.

"Due to this, significant delays in the area are highly likely."
