Drivers have been warned they face delays on a main road through a Wiltshire town following a gas leak.
The leak, on Frome Road in Bradford on Avon, has sparked urgent roadworks that include the installation of temporary two-way traffic lights on the busy route.
These signals were put in place on Friday, January 2, and are expected to remain in place until Tuesday, January 6.
They are located at the junction with Barton Close, near the railway station.
