People are being warned not to drive to Heathrow terminals two and three and allow more time for journeys.

Flooding in the central terminal area has led to road closures.

The airport has issued the following statement:

"Flooding in the central terminal area has resulted in on-going road closures restricting access to Terminals 2 and 3. Passengers travelling to or from either of these terminals today must not travel by road.

"Passengers are strongly advised to use Heathrow Express, Elizabeth Line and Piccadilly Line rail services where possible.

"Any passengers that must travel by car must use Park and Ride, head to Terminals 4 or 5 and take free rail services from there, or change at local rail stations. Please allow extra time for your journey.

"Our teams are working to resolve the situation as quickly as possible, we apologise for any disruption caused."
