A DRAMATIC drone picture has emerged showing flooding at a major roundabout on the edge of Bradford. 

The flooding at Chain Bar roundabout was caused by a burst water main and led to lane closures.

The inside lane of the roundabout remains closed while the clean-up continues.

Gazz Hall, from The West Yorkshire News Telegraph Facebook page, shared the above drone picture with the Telegraph & Argus. 

A Yorkshire Water spokesperson said just before 4pm: "The inside lane of the roundabout remains closed while the clean-up continues.

"Teams are on site to continue the clean-up work and Yorkshire Water is working closely with highways and will reopen the inside lane as soon as remaining surface water has been removed and it is safe to do so."

The spokesperson said earlier: "Yorkshire Water has apologised for delays at Chain Bar roundabout roundabout following a burst water main.

"Teams are on site to isolate the main and stop the flow of water and will begin pumping away the surface water.

"The burst main is not impacting water supplies in the area."
