FRIDAY rush hour motorists face traffic misery as part of the A985 remains closed after a driver lost control of a crane lorry this morning.

Police say it could take another several hours to remove the vehicle, which is currently overhanging a railway bridge on the Rosyth to Cairneyhill Road.

Tailbacks were caused this morning by traffic being diverted via Dunfermline from the Rosyth Lexmark roundabout and at the Cairneyhill roundabout.

The driver of the large yellow Demag crane was removed from the vehicle and is unhurt.

Recovery cranes are at the scene.
