Earlier today there were traffic problems for motorists leaving the city centre on the Strand Road after a coach broke down beside traffic lights.

In another, unrelated incident this morning, a number of roads were cordoned off after a security alert in the Galliagh area of the city, which later turned out to be a hoax.
