Buses in Havering are running on diversion until further notice after a collapsed sewer has resulted in a road closure. 

The live closure on Mawney Road and Percy Road will see the 252 and 651 follow a new route whilst repair works are carried out. 

Both routes began the amended service at 10am on November 18, with Transport for London advising passengers the diversion will last "until further notice". 

Buses will travel via the A12 Eastern Avenue and Collier Row Lane in both directions.
