MOTORISTS have been warned to be on the lookout for black ice on a major road into Romsey this morning.

A tweet from Hants Roads Policing says people should drive carefully around the hazard if they are using the A3090 from Ower to Romsey and when they approach the A27 Cromwell Arms junction.

They stressed there is black ice across both lanes, which has been caused by surface water run off.

The tweet reads: "Highways are aware and attending.

"Please drive to the conditions."
