DORCAN Way remains closed in both directions following a water main burst in the early hours of this morning.

Vehicles have been forced to find alternative routes after the main burst. Thames Water engineers closed the road to fix the pipe and are now carrying out repair work to the road which is expected to last two hours.

A Thames Water spokesman said:

"An eight inch water main burst in the early hours of Saturday morning.
"Engineers have fixed the pipe but Dorcan Way will remain closed while we repair the road."
