The work on the section in Coseley, between Ivyhouse Lane and Shaw Road on the A4123 Birmingham New Road, has been put back until Sunday, March 12 due to the cold snap this week.

It will see the section closed in both directions between 7.30am and 2.30pm, with high levels of congestion and increased journey times expected.

The works will affect travellers heading towards Wolverhampton, with diversions towards Sedgley, Bilston and Coseley.
