RAIL passengers and motorists are delayed this morning due to problems at Brockenhurst level crossing.
Lines to Bournemouth and Southampton are affected, with disruption expected until 10am.
A spokesperson for South West Trains said: "Trains in the Brockenhurst area have to stop either side of Brockenhurst level crossing, to get verbal permission to continue.
"This is due to a fault at the level crossing and trains are expected to lose approximately 5 minutes.
"We are sorry for any extra time added to your journey this morning."
Traffic is also delayed either side of the level crossing, on the A337, as a result of the issue.
