Flood water spills onto A19 as drivers warned to take extra care
Drivers are being warned to take extra care on a busy stretch of the A19 after heavy overnight rain left conditions difficult.
Police are set to 'assess the situation' at Testo's roundabout on the A19, near Boldon, after flood water from the adjacent fields started to spill across both carriageways.
Drivers travelling on the road are advised to slow down.
