A burst water main in Halesowen has caused the closure of Malt Mill Lane in Halesowen this morning (Tuesday).

South Staffs Water has closed the road between Victoria Road and Long Lane, to repair the water main.

It is anticipated the work will take four days to complete.

Jill Wakeman, Project Engineer, for Dudley Metropolitan Borough Council said: "The Diversion route is Victoria Road, Vicarage Road, Long Lane and vice-versa.

"Access to frontages will be maintained where safe to do so."
