A road in Bromsgrove has reopened after being blocked in both directions by a fallen tree.

Perryfields Road in Bromsgrove was temporarily blocked after a tree fell into the carriageway.

The road was blocked in both directions between Stourbridge Road and King Edward Road.

According to Councillor Nikolas Price (Bromgrove West Division), a tree surgeon was deployed after the incident, with the road reopening after the fallen tree was cleared.

After the tree was cleared, one resident said: "All clear now, but it was a bit of a shock seeing the massive branch in the road literally by our house when I got back from work.

"Apparently, it blew down from the blustery winds."

The incident took place yesterday (Wednesday, April 29).
