A car fire on the A14 has caused rush hour delays in Cambridgeshire.

Fire crews were called to a Vauxhall Vectra on fire on the westbound carriageway between St Ives and Hemmingford Abbots at 3:30pm today (Friday).

One lane of the carriageway was closed as a result, leading to long delays to traffic in the area.

Nobody was injured.
