An accident on the A39 at Dracaena Avenue has been causing problems, however the road is now open to traffic.

Partial blockage of the road earlier on A39 Dracaena Avenue in both directions in Falmouth between the Ashfield Road junction and the Laburnum Drive junction, because of an earlier accident.

The heavy downpours are however causing problems elsewhere, with hazardous driving conditions reported on the A30 near Blackwater close to Chiverton Cross Roundabout, because of rain and surface water.

There are reports of standing water on the A39 at Arch Hill and between Carnon Downs and The Norway Inn at Perranaworthal.
