A ROLLING roadblock was carried out on the A55 this afternoon due to sheep.

The announcement came from Traffic Wales just before 1pm on Saturday, with a spokesman explaining: "Sheep on the network [at] A55 Rhuallt Hill.

"A rolling roadblock will be implemented in both directions to safely remove the sheep from the area."

However, just before 1.30pm, a spokesman added: "Sheep now safely removed from the network.

"Congestion remains on the eastbound carriageway."
