A three-vehicle crash at Hinton Charterhouse, south of Bath, has now been cleared and is no longer causing delays for motorists.
Police were called to the incident on Wellow Lane following a collision involving three vehicles at the junction with the B3110 High Street and Branch Road.
It is a popular route out of the city for commuters driving home towards Frome and Trowbridge.
There are already delays in that area because of works to repair a landslip at Midford earlier in the year.
The main road through the village has temporary traffic lights and one lane is closed while those works take place.
Elsewhere in Bath traffic appears to be moving freely, although there is the usual congestion on Lower Bristol Road around Windsor Bridge and on London Road.
