Newport Police have issues advice that people should avoid Newport at the moment “if at all possible.”
It’s all down to the traffic being grid-locked following the road closure due to a burst water main.
On The Wight reader Rachel Vivian sent us a photo of the offending hole, which from the photo, looks pretty tame, but she tell sus that the tarmac is buckled and there’s lots of water around.
She gave up trying to drive into Newport to the cinema, instead parking her car and walking.
