MOTORISTS are facing delays of up to an hour and a half after an incident at Dock Gate 20 in Southampton this morning.

Southampton City Council says the dock gate has open but there are traffic problems in Millbrook and Redbridge this morning.

A map by travel information service Romanse shows long delays on the M271 southbound into the city, eastbound in Totton and on Redbridge Causeway, and heading west on Redbridge Road.

Romanse says there are delays of up to 90 minutes between Totton bypass and Southampton road in Lyndhurst.

Drivers are advised to check their routes before travelling.
