Pipers Way has become submerged as one of many roads across Swindon flooded in heavy rain.

A large puddle has settled on the road, and while a video shows cars driving through it, others are warning of the potential risks of doing so.Gipsy LaneGipsy Lane (Image: Dave Cox)

A government warning states that river levels are rising in the River Cole, Dorcan Brook and South Marston Brook with low-level flooding expected in the surrounding area of Lower Stratton.

Property flooding is not expected but low-lying footpaths could be affected.

A Met Office weather warning was upgraded earlier today from yellow to the more serious amber, meaning a higher likelihood of flooding.

In its advice, it says: “Prepare to avoid travelling by road during potentially dangerous road conditions. If you must travel, ensure you watch for possible danger and drive cautiously.

“It is not safe to drive, walk or swim through floodwater, avoid it where possible and if you are affected by fast-flowing or deep-water call 999, and wait for help.”
