A lorry on fire has prompted a main road to close this morning, causing pileups between Wimbledon and Morden.

Morden Road is closed in both directions after reports of a vehicle fire between Mertantun Way and the junction with Kingston Road (South Wimbledon underground station) at 11.19am.

A spokesman for the London Fire Brigade said it was not regarded as a serious fire and was dealt with by a Wimbledon fire crew by 11.30pm.
