Anglian Water is trying to fix the problem in Oakley Road, Corby, and a section of the road has been closed off while the work is undertaken.

But it has led to drivers having to queue to get into and out of the Tesco store, with some drivers reporting queuing for several hours to get out of the store car park over the weekend.

A spokesman for Anglian Water said: “We have a burst main to repair and to do this safely we have had to close the road.

“We are speaking with the site manager to find out if there is anything we can do to ease the issues of getting in and out of Tesco.

“The road closure is due to be in place until Friday, December 23.

“Sorry again for the inconvenience.”
