A DOCK Gate in Southampton has closed today.

Southampton City Council said it has been advised by ABP Southampton that Dock Gate 10 was closed today due to an unsafe structure.

Drivers were advised to use Dock Gate 8 or 20 to access the area if needed.

A spokesperson for ABP Southampton said: "Dock Gate 10 is currently closed and we hope to have it reopened by the end of the day."

The listed landmark closed again earlier this month, after a vehicle struck it.

This wasn't the first time this happened, after a truck collided with the archway in November, and scaffolding has been in place there ever since.

The full repairs are due to take place once the upgrade of nearby Millbrook Roundabout is complete in April.
