TRAFFIC is returning to normal around the St Paul’s roundabout in Bournemouth this morning after a diesel spill.

The large spill, which covered around 200 metres closed part of Holdenhurst Road, spread into Southcote Road.

St Swithuns Road was also being gritted by the borough council.

Lane two heading towards Asda from the mini roundabout near Staples was also closed.

A Dorset Police spokesperson said: "It appeared the spillage itself spread to neighbouring roads and is believed to have been caused by a coach.

"At 11am all road closures were lifted, as the council had attended and gritted all the affected roads."
