Police officers are directing traffic at the Frank Worrell Roundabout at the bottom of University Hill, St Michael, where a Barbados Water Authority tanker overturned.

Motorists approaching the bottom of the University Hill or Black Rock should proceed with caution.

An eyewitness told Nation News two vehicles were tailing each other when one appeared to pick up a skid in the roundabout and overturned.

The passengers kicked out the windshield and climbed out.

A statement from the BWA said the crew appeared to be “in good health” and a team was on site. An investigation has also been launched into the incident.
