A sinkhole has caused travel disruption after it led to a major road to be closed in both directions in Wales.
The A40 near Llandovery, Carmarthenshire, was shut for four miles and diversions put in place after the gap opened up in the tarmac.
The sinkhole is said to be outside the Blaenos Nursing Home and is it not yet clear what caused it.
An estimate for the size of the hole has not been released but authorities have confirmed road closure and have not provided an update for when it will reopen.
