A lane has been re-opened on the Weymouth Relief Road in the wake of a breakdown.

Travel Dorset reported that the northbound lane on the road reopened shortly after 9 am on Monday; it had been closed after a horse-box broke down, blocking traffic.

The northbound lane had been closed between the A353 (Jurassic Roundabout) and the A35 (Stadium Roundabout). Heavy traffic had been reported.
