A gas leak in Worcester Park is causing traffic problems this evening.

The problem, near number 379 Malden Road, left four properties without a supply.

Now, Southern Gas Networks staff are working to repair the main pipe and some service pipes on both sides of the road and a spokeswoman warned of possible disruption.

"Two-way temporary traffic lights are in place so expect the traffic to be slower at the location," she said.

"The works are expected to continue through the night to minimize the lenght of the disruption."
