Worcestershire County Council will be closing the A443 Hylton Road tomorrow evening to allow Severn Trent to install flood pumps.

It is estimated that the closure will take around three hours and will start at 6.30pm.

A spokesperson for Worcestershire County Council said: "We have been liaising with Worcester Wolves ahead of their home National Basketball League fixture against Manchester Magic tomorrow evening, which is taking place at The University Arena.

All vehicle access to the Arena will be via Tybridge Street and under the railway arches to enter the Arena.

"Please stay safe and do not drive through flood water."

So far, Walcot Lane in Drakes Broughton, near Pershore is the only road closure due to flooding.
