ROAD closures caused by flooding remain in place in areas surrounding Worcester and across Worcestershire this morning.
Diversions are active to avoid closures in Upton-upon-Severn and Pinvin where Walcot Ford is too high to pass safely.
The downgrading of flood alerts in Upton means Hanley Road and Brotheridge Green Lane have been reopened today.
