Malpas Road is badly congested this morning due to an earlier accident involving two vans and a car.
Traffic coming into Newport is affected.
The crash happened before 8am between Blaen-y-Pant Crescent and J26 of the M4.
All lanes have now been re-opened and emergency services have left the scene.
The Highways Agency say the congestion will take time to recover.
