Shoppers are facing queues up to 45 minutes to leave the new Morrisons supermarket in Purley.

Angry customers have taken to Twitter to complain at the length of time it is taking to leave the car park at the newly opened store.

One customer tweeted: "Taken 45 minutes to exit car park at Morrisons Purley. Problem with traffic lights as four seconds green and two minutes red. Needs to be resolved urgently."

Another shopper said: "Everyone should avoid Morrisons in Croydon at all costs. Thirty to 45 minutes to get out of the car park- not impressed."

A spokeswoman for Morrisons said it is understood there is a problem with the traffic lights.

She said: "We are working with Transport for London to resolve this as soon as possible."
