Stourbridge town centre set for seven weeks of roadworks
Motorists have been warned they face seven weeks of disruption with roadworks due to begin near Stourbridge town centre.
Crumbling gas pipes are being dug up and replaced between Heath Lane and Corser Street.
Temporary traffic lights will be put up in Love Lane from Monday.
Drivers travelling through the area over the next two months have been told to allow more time for their journeys.
The route is routinely used by traffic heading from the Stourbridge Ring Road towards Hagley Road.
Stephen Murray, from the National Grid, said: "We know that some of the essential work National Grid has to carry out to replace the gas mains creates disruption and inconvenience, but we are always looking for ways to minimise these problems.
"In this situation we advise motorists to allow extra time for their journey and follow the road markings guiding them through the diversion."
