Emergency overnight closures are set to take place tonight in Bromsgrove.

Emergency maintenance works will be taking place on the A38 between Oakalls (Slideslow) Island and Austin Road Island from 8pm today (Saturday, February 14) until 6am tomorrow (Sunday, February 15).

Worcestershire County Council said in a Facebook post: "The section of the A38 will be repaired and resurfaced by our Maintenance team."

"As the Highway Authority, we have a legal duty under the Highways Act 1980 to keep the highway safe for everyone."

The work set to be carried out is weather dependent.

If temperatures are too low it may be postponed.

The council added: "We’ll continue to keep disruption to a minimum and complete the work as safely and efficiently as possible."
