SEVERE weather over the weekend has caused flooding chaos across Dorset.

There is currently still disruption between Water Lane in Wool and Bailey's Drove in East Burton. The A352 in Wool is partially blocked in both directions between the Water Lane junction and the Bailey's Drove junction, because of flooding.

There is also flooding and temporary traffic lights on A35 in both directions in Bloxworth Flats at the Bloxworth junction.

The A35 between Bridport and Dorchester was closed earlier this morning but is now reopen.

Motorists were advised to avoid the area and use other routes until the flooding subsided and was safe.

The A35 was closed both ways between the A3066/East Street - Texaco/Mitsubishi roundabout in Bridport - and the A37/B3150 - Monkeys Jump Roundabout in Dorchester.

There are reports that the A35 is still closed between the Football Ground Roundabout and Stinsford Roundabout.
