Balham High Road, Wandsworth has been closed off after scaffolding erected outside a building on the street collapsed this morning.

Firefighters were called at 3.20am to remove the 10m by 8m scaffolding tower, which was lying in the road and on the pavement opposite Sainsbury’s.

An infra-red camera and lights were used to make sure nobody was trapped underneath. A spokesman confirmed no one was hurt in the incident.

The road remained closed at 9am and traffic in the area has been severely affected.
