Another lorry has become stuck under this railway bridge in Swindon's town centre (Image: Google Maps)
Part of a road in the town centre has been closed after a lorry became stuck under a low bridge.
Police closed Corporation Street between Great Western Way and Station Road on Monday morning while officers and National Rail staff attend to a large vehicle which was wedged under Whitehouse Bridge.
Traffic is coping well with the closure for now, but delays and queues are likely as rush hour begins.
This comes just two days after a lorry blocked the same road by hitting the same low bridge, which has several signs nearby that warn that it is not suitable for vehicles bigger than 10 feet or 3.1 metres high.
The road reopened at around 8.40pm. Congestion is slowly beginning to ease.
