LONG queues of traffic have built up in Great Western Way between Mannington roundabout and junction 16 of the M4 as the rush hour gets into full swing.
Swindon South Police have warned: “We have received reports of drivers using the central reservation to enable a U-Turn.
“This is dangerous as vehicles on the other side are travelling at speeds of up to 70 mph and we would like to avoid any accidents and ensure that everyone gets home safe today.”
They are urging drivers to avoid the area and if stuck in the queue to remain where they are.
The roundabout at junction 16 is undergoing a major upgrade that started just over a year ago and is expected to finish in the spring.
