A wonky lamppost in Erith caused travel chaos as traffic was forced to be diverted around it.

The street furniture was leaning dangerously in Mulberry Way, Erith, causing problems for motorists.

Bus route 180 had to be diverted via Crabtree Manorway North earlier today (June 7).

Transport for London (TfL) reported it was posing a danger to road users.

The lilting lamppost is thought to have been fixed as TfL later reported the bus was back on its usual route.
