A FOUR car pile-up on a Hampshire motorway is causing delays for commuters this morning.

The incident happened in the outside lane on the eastbound carriageway of the M27 at Bursledon at about 8.20am.

Motorists were caught in tailbacks towards junction seven of the motorway with vehicles being directed to use the hard shoulder to ease congestion but all lanes have now reopened.

Emergency services were called but there were no injuries.
