A STRETCH of the M5 will be closed at times this week whilst National Highways carry out maintenance works. 

The motorway will be closed between M5 southbound junction 4a to junction 6 so trees can be cut.

The road will be closed between 9pm and 6am starting on Tuesday (July 23) until Friday (July 26).

There will be a diversion in place via National Highways and the local authority network.

People can stay up to date with the latest road closure information, whether they are in progress now or planned for the future, via uk.one.network on the Worcestershire County Council website.
