The A9 has reopened and traffic "is easing" after an earlier closure caused by a multi-vehicle collision near Blair Atholl.

The crash, which involved three vehicles, occurred at the House of Bruar at around 1.45pm, according to police. There was no immediate information as to the type of vehicles involved.

Scottish Fire and Rescue Service (SFRS) crews and police were among the emergency crews to respond to the incident.
