STRONG winds and heavy rain has caused travel disruption on the roads in Basingstoke with one lane of the B3400 blocked due to a fallen branch.

The branch is blocking one side of the road linking Basingstoke, Oakley, Overton and Whitchurch near to the entrance of Oakley Hall.

The Met Office has issued an amber warning for heavy rain for much of the South until tomorrow morning, with winds expected to reach 60mph.
