On Wednesday, September 14, Derbyshire County Council issued a statement confirming that they were aware of traffic issues in Long Eaton today.

A DCC spokesperson said: “This is mainly due to a leaking gas pipe that Cadent Gas are fixing, which has meant that there are traffic lights on Nottingham Road. Please avoid the area if you can.”
