HEAVY fog is causing disruption at Southampton Docks this morning.
Due to the thick fog, the port reduced operations earlier this morning and queues are building on all approaches to Dock Gate 20.
Operations have since resumed but delays are still heavy on approach as they deal with the backlog of lorries entering the port.
Motorists have been urged to avoid this route where possible.
