A lorry has broken down due to the weather conditions between Abbott’s Road (Leek) and A54 Macclesfield Main Road (Buxton).

Police say the road was partially blocked but they closed it just after 7am and a Staffordshire Police spokesman said: “The A53 from Upper Hulme to Buxton is closed due to the snow. Highways are in the process of gritting the road. We urge motorists to find alternative routes.”
