A MAIN road going through St Johns has closed for three weeks.

Malvern Road, between the A449 and Winchester Avenue, is closed today (Friday) until 7pm on May 17 due to roadworks.

Worcestershire County Council will carry out surface redressing and road sweeping, as well as lining, adding cat eyes, and civils.

A spokesperson for First Worcester said its 44, s43 and s44 services will be affected and diversions will take place via Bromwich Road in both directions. 

According to the AA, traffic has been building in the area as a result.
