TRAFFIC is flowing freely around the region this morning, although commuters are being warned to take care in patches of mist and fog.

A burst water main has forced the closure of Greyhound Hill in Langham, near Colchester, at the junction with Moor Road as emergency repairs take place.

A signed diversion is in place and there are no reports of serious tailbacks in the area as a result of the closure.

Trains and buses are running smoothly across the region with few delays.
