A giant lorry which blocks Maldon High Street twice a week, every week, giving motorists a wilting feeling, is to continue to cause traffic chaos.

The lorry is a delivery truck from Holland which drops off flowers to the Talking Flowers shop.

Drivers are left waiting behind the monster vehicle unless there is a gap in the traffic coming in the opposite direction every Tuesday and Friday morning.

Freda Barker, who works at Talking Flowers, said the lorry cannot get around to the back entrance of the shop to drop the stock off and cannot move further down the High Street as a bus stop is in the way.
