HIGHWAYS chiefs have issued a temporary road closure notice for the cycle lane on the busy Tipton Road in Dudley.

The southbound carriageway of the cycle lane will be closed from Monday January 8 to Friday January 12 while Virgin Media carries out work.

The closure will be from Castlegate Way to Castle Gate Island.

The restriction has been ordered to enable workers to safely work on a new Virgin Media service connection, Dudley Council’s highways department said.
