National Highways (NH) said it happened at about 03:00 BST and the road was shut between Radwell, Hertfordshire, and Biggleswade, Bedfordshire.

Bedfordshire Police said it was at the scene and it was "anticipating some congestion in the area whilst emergency services deal with the incident".

A "complex" recovery has taken place, NH added.
