The A1(M) is the motorway-grade sections of the Great North Road, upgraded in stretches through Hertfordshire, Cambridgeshire, Yorkshire and County Durham. Because motorway and all-purpose sections alternate, incidents are listed with their county so you can tell which stretch is affected. Live data refreshes every 5 minutes.
