Trains between Weymouth and Poole are running at reduced speed due to a tree blocking the line.

South Western Railway said there is a tree 'potentially' blocking the railway between Poole and Wareham, which means that trains have to run at reduced speed on the line towards Weymouth.

Train services running through these stations may be delayed and disruption is expected until 9am today.

For further information or onward travel advice passengers are advised to speak to a member of staff or use a station help point.
