Derbyshire and Notts police and the Notts Fire and Rescue all attended but there are not believed to be any serious injuries.

The Highways Agency say the clean-up is now complete, all closures are lifted and traffic is now ‘flowing freely’.

They also say they would like to thank road users for their patience.
