Drivers should take care and leave extra time for journeys today as delays are expected on the county's roads. 

The A35 has seen delays due to a crash near Charmouth and holiday traffic throughout the day.

There was slow traffic in both directions from Elsdons Lane, Monkton Wyld, to Green Lane in Harcombe as a result of the crash.

This cleared shortly after 5pm and traffic is beginning to ease. 

Currently, there is slow traffic at the Crown roundabout and heading onto the coast road.

Traffic heading into Bridport from Walditch and eastbound towards Dorchester has cleared. 

Earlier, there was heavy holiday traffic at Chideock and delays at Gammons Hill near Axminster. This has since cleared. 

More to follow.
