Burst water main and collapsed road causes traffic chaos
The road between Sorley Cross and Stumpy Post Cross has been closed due to a burst water main and a collapsed road.
Kingsbridge Police posted on social media: "Sorley Cross to Stumpy Post is closed due to a collapsed road. Belle Hill is also closed with roadworks. It's very busy. Please avoid. Going to the tip can wait until tomorrow."
A South West Water statement on their website states: "We’re aware that some customers in Kingsbridge may be experiencing lower pressure than usual or a loss of supply due to a burst water main in Slade Cross. Our team are on site working hard to repair the burst and we expect that supplies will be restored in the next 3 to 4 hours. We would like to thank you for your patience and apologise for any inconvenience caused."
