AN overturned van is causing delays on a major Hampshire motorway this morning.

There is queuing traffic on the M27 eastbound due to an overturned van across the central reservation between junction eight for Bursledon/Hamble and junction nine for Segensworth/Fareham.

The outside two lanes on the eastbound and westbound carriageways are currently blocked.

Crews from the Highways Agency are currently on scene dealing with the incident.

Lanes two and three on the eastbound carriageway and lane three westbound are closed as emergency repairs to the barrier are carried out.

Delays are expected until at least 10.15am.
