The A24 London Road in Worcester park has re-opened after a fallen tree in Worcester Park blocked the road between Ewell and North Cheam this morning.
Transport for London (TfL) confirmed the road's re-opening after "emergency tree works" were carried out.
The tree had covered both lanes of the road between Tudor Avenue and Oaks Avenue.
