TRAFFIC on a busy roundabout is slow due to a trailer in need of repair.

Police are currently assisting with traffic management on Stadium Roundabout in Dorchester as repairs to the trailer take place.

The disruption is causing queuing traffic on the A35, B3147 and A354 in all directions.

The tailbacks are also causing delays and congestion on Monkeys Jump Roundabout.

Motorists are advised to find alternative routes or allow more time for their journeys.

A spokesperson for Dorset Police said: "We received a report at 11.08am of a trailer that required repairs partially blocking the carriageway at the Stadium Roundabout near Dorchester.

"Officers have attended to assist with traffic management as the trailer is repaired."
