TRAFFIC is currently very heavy heading out of Oxford along the A420 Botley Road because of road works in Cumnor.

The westbound carriageway of the A420 is closed between the A34 and the B4017  for resurfacing and restabilisation work, and is expected to remain closed until May 29.

Oxford Bus Company said its city bus and Park & Ride services were severly delayed as Botley Road was "stationary".
