RAILWAY lines have reopened after a vehicle blocked a level crossing at Brockenhurst this morning.
Disruption is expected until 12pm with passengers services may be cancelled, delayed or revised.
A British Transport Police spokesperson said: "We received a report of a car on the railway line in Brockenhurst at 6.48am today (24 January) and an update that the car was off the line at just before 7.20am.
"Enquiries into this incident are ongoing."
South Western Railway services between London Waterloo and Bournemouth, Poole and Weymouth faced disruption.

However, giving an update just before 7.45am, South Western Railway said: "Following a road vehicle blocking the railway at Brockenhurst all lines have now reopened."
Posting on its website earlier, South Western Railway said: “We have been informed of a road vehicle blocking the railway at Brockenhurst level crossing.
“This means that all lines through the area are currently blocked.
“For further information or onward travel advice please speak to a member of staff or use a station help point.
“We are very sorry for any delay that this may cause to your journey.”
