Live police incident as major Liverpool roads closed and buses diverted

Merseyside Police

We are reporting live with news that a police incident is causing disruption on some major Liverpool roads. Bus operator Arriva has taken to social media to confirm that an ongoing incident is causing disruption to its planned services, with buses having to be diverted. According to Arriva, the incident has happened on Queens Drive. Images from the scene show a number of police vehicles parked up in the road, with two lanes closed. A long line of queuing cars can also be seen in Queens Drive. The bus company said that the Queens Drive incident means that its 81/81A services will now operate via Rocky Lane, Thomas Drive and East Prescot Road before coming back onto Queens Drive. Arriva services from Bottle to Speke and to Liverpool John Lennon Airport remain normal. Stay tuned for live updates.
