Buses had to be diverted earlier this morning due to an 'oil leak' on a major Bradford road.

The incident caused disruption to traffic in the Leeds Road area of the city.

An earlier tweet from MetroTravelNews said: "Bradford, buses 72, 608 & X6 diverting due to oil leak on Leeds Road.

72 - via Wakefield Road, Bowling Back Lane and Planetrees Road.

608 - via Wakefield Road and Bowling Back Lane X6 - via Wakefield Road, Bowling Back Lane and Sticker Lane.

"Diversions in both directions."

However, at about 8.15am, an update was issued to say Leeds Road had reopened and services were back on their normal route.

There were reports of a multi-vehicle crash in Leeds Road in the early hours of the morning, but it is not confirmed as to whether the bus disruption was linked to the crash.
