GOOD morning. We are here to provide any information on incidents that might crop up throughout the rush hour period this morning on our Black Country and North Worcestershire roads.

So far the roads across the area are pretty quiet, but there is heavy traffic in Kidderminster on A456 Worcester Road and Kidderminster Road around Summervale Road / Western Road and in Brierley Hill on High Street around Mill Street.

The usual congestion at the Burnt Tree traffic lights in Dudley and Birchley Island in Oldbury is also causing delays.

There are areas of planned roadworks which are causing delays, they include:

Speed restriction of 30 mph and one lane closed due to major roadworks and contraflow on M5 both ways between J1 (West Bromwich / Birmingham) and J2 (Oldbury). Work on the Oldbury Viaduct means that all traffic is sharing one side of the road as a contraflow.

There are also speed restriction of 20 mph in Pensnett due to roadworks and temporary traffic lights on A4101 High Street at High Oak.

Carriageway repairs on Bromsgrove Road both ways between Cockshutt Lane and Snakes Lake Lane near Bromsgrove are causing delays.

In Kidderminster, electricity work and temporary traffic lights will be in place on Habberley Lane at Habberley Road until December 8, while gas main work and temporary traffic lights are in place on A448 Comberton Road at Yew Tree Road.

Telecoms work and temporary traffic lights could cause delays on Wildmoor Lane at Mayfield Close in Catshill and in Oldbury, electricity work and temporary traffic lights are on Tat Bank Road at Parsonage Street.
