DRIVERS were being warned to avoid Weymouth Esplanade due to heavy traffic yesterday.
Residents said the area was 'gridlocked' while Dorset Council's Travel Dorset service was advising road users to steer clear for the time being.
One resident on The Esplanade said: "It is the harbour closing without a doubt - it's totally gridlocked down here."
Update: #TravelDorsetAlert: Weymouth - The Esplanade - drivers are advised to avoid The Esplanade (south) due to heavy traffic in the area. Traffic signal control in operation to try to ease congestion.

Traffic circling the area will be adding to the disruption at this time.
