MOTORISTS on the Itchen Bridge are facing delays due to a "police incident".

Southampton City Council's travel team announced the incident on social media at about 3pm.

A map from travel service Romanse shows delays in both directions approaching the centre of the bridge.

A Hampshire Constabulary spokeswoman said: “We were called to Itchen Bridge at 3.07pm to a report of a concern for welfare of a woman.

“There were no road closures.

“She was taken away by ambulance at 3.27pm, with no details to suggest any injuries."
