A road was partially blocked after dozens of metal pipes spilled from a trailer on to the carriageway.

Derbyshire Police said officers received reports of "debris" on the road at Little Eaton Island in Derby at about 13:15 BST on Tuesday.

One lane between the roundabout and the A61 was blocked, but a force spokesman said traffic "has since returned to a normal level".

No injuries were reported, police confirmed.
