Bristol floods: Parkway trains blocked and road disruption after heavy rain

Flooding is causing disruption in parts of Bristol as heavy rain continues to batter the region. Part of Bond Street around the Bearpit in the city centre was partially closed this morning due to flood water. The Henbury Ford has also flooded, leaving it impassable for buses and disrupting services.

Services one and two are unable to service Station Road in Henbury due to the flooding and services have been diverted. In a tweet at 9.15am, First West of England said: “Services 1 and 2 will be unable to service Station Road in Henbury due to the ford being too dangerous to go through.

"Services diverted via Wyck Beck Road.” Lower Ashley Road has also suffered with flooding this morning, and elsewhere the trains are also disrupted.
