Trains and roads affected by flooding and landslips this morning

There's problems because of flooding right across the region, with roads and rail lines closed as a result of the heavy downpours yesterday.

South Western railway say a landslip at Crewkerne is affecting the railway between Exeter St Davids and Yeovil Junction. A spokesperson added: "At this time, we estimate that disruption to our services will end at the end of the day. All lines are blocked and your journey is likely to take longer. "

There is also problems on Great Western Railway services across its network.

There has been a landslip on the A377 in Crediton and the Environment Agency have issued a number of flood alerts right across the West Country.

Roy Stokes, from there, told us: "Everywhere you look there seems to be standing water and that's what the problem is at the moment because we've had so much rain over the last few weeks weeks, no chance to dry out and what comes next just adds instant impact."

The A363 Bradford Road is closed both ways in Somerset after an accident, while overnight the A36 was closed in Somerset between the A361 south at Beckington and A3098 near Chapmanslade due to flooding.

At North Bradley in Wiltshire, the A363 is closed due to flooding from Yarnbrook Roundabout to Platinum Roundabout.

Overnight Avon & Somerset Police warned they'd had a number of calls relating to flooding in the Banes area, and posted: "We'd please ask people to remember to call 999 only in an emergency.

Further afield there's no service on Great Western Railway between Reading and Westbury due to flooding at Newbury and Aldermaston.

A major incident was declared yesterday amid widespread flooding in the Midlands.
