PSNI told road users to avoid Cusher Road Market Hill on Saturday lunchtime after a serious road traffic collision on the Cusher Road in Markethill. The road was closed in both directions while police, ambulance and fire services attended.
One PSNI spokesperson said: “Road users are advised to avoid the Cusher Road, Markethill, as police and emergency services are currently in attendance at a serious road traffic collision.” The spokesperson added: “Please seek an alternative route where possible.”

The closure left drivers in Co Armagh facing delays in the area and pushed traffic onto other routes while the scene remained active. For anyone heading through Markethill at lunchtime, the practical instruction was simple: avoid the road and use another route if possible.
The collision was described as serious, but the available details do not say what caused it. That leaves the immediate concern for road users unchanged until the route can reopen: whether to stay clear of Cusher Road and expect disruption nearby.
