‘Abandoned’ plant machinery led to Claudy traffic disruption

A large item of plant machinery that had been causing traffic disruption in Claudy has been removed.

Earlier police appealed for motorists to avoid the area after the vehicle was “moved and abandoned” om the village’s Main Street close to St Patrick’s and St Brigid’s College.

The entire road was blocked in both directions for a period.

Police say the road has now been cleared.
