John Killett tweeted: 'Traffic now blocking Barn Road and city gridlocked back to Barrack street #chaos.'

And Jo Clarke said: 'I parked in Barn Road carpark, eventually, and in the time it took me to walk to Duke Street, the queue had barely moved.'

Work is expected to continue until the end of the week

A spokesperson for UK Power Networks added: 'We apologise for any inconvenience caused while this vital work takes place.'
