Friday 1 December (starting from 00:01) until Monday 4 December (23:59)
A small section of Birmingham New Road A4123, by Hanson's Ale Bridge, will be closed to both vehicles and pedestrians to enable safe removal of the existing bridge deck for the Wednesbury to Brierley Hill Metro extension.
To facilitate these works, a diversion route for vehicles and pedestrians will be in place via Tipton Road and Birmingham Road.
All local attractions and businesses remain open as usual for the duration of the works.
