Philip Dewey

05:45AM, Sunday 07 July 2013

A community mini-bus which caught fire on the roundabout just off junction 8/9 for Maidenhead has caused major tail-backs.

Firefighters from Maidenhead Fire Station were called to the scene at 3.50pm today after the 17-seater mini-bus, which had two people on board, had caught fire after a vehicle malfunction.

Both people on board sustained no injuries but the mini-bus was completely destroyed

There are major delays on the M4, A404 and A303. Drivers have been advised to avoid the area.
