An articulated lorry got stuck in a lane in a south Wales village after its driver took an alternative route when the M4 motorway was closed temporarily.

The Aldi vehicle blocked a lane between Mynydd Gelli Wastad Road in Morriston, Swansea, and Heol Dywyll, Clydach.

Police tweeted to say they were working on removing the lorry from the lane, which was closed overnight on Sunday.

The lorry was dragged free by a crane on Monday and the lane has since been reopened.
