Motorists were stranded on the morning of January 4 as Tewkesbury was almost cut off by flood waters. On the main road into the town, the A438 Ashchurch Road, several drivers were stranded and had to be rescued before police closed the road #ProBowl pic.twitter.com/SllMQA6R5V— Inna Solovei (@solovushka_i) January 4, 2024
