Commuters are waking up to travel misery this morning as the ongoing effects of heavy rain and flooding extend to a second day.

The A421 in Marston Moretaine, Bedfordshire is still closed due to flooding blocking the road in both directions.

This is having a knock-on effect on the A5, which is also blocked on its northbound carriageway.

Yesterday saw railway lines flooded up and down the UK as huge swathes of the country were impacted by an amber weather warning for rain.

A driver had to be rescued from their flooded car in Wallington, south London, while parts of the London Underground and Overground were suspended due to the flooding.
