Lichfield road closures: The 22 streets being shut for Jubilee celebrations

Street parties are expected to come alive with music, drinks and food as the nation looks to celebrate over the weekend of June 2 to June 5.

A total of 22 roads will be closed to traffic over the four-day weekend.

The Leader of Lichfield District Council, Doug Pullen, said: "We are delighted that residents are holding street parties across the district to mark Her Majesty The Queen's Platinum Jubilee.

"This is a wonderful opportunity to celebrate the dedicated service The Queen has given to the nation for seven decades.

"I wish everyone a fantastic time with their families, friends and neighbours on this joyous occasion which, after the restrictions of the pandemic, is very welcome."

Across the Black Country and Staffordshire, 213 roads will shut as people are urged to plan ahead to minimise disruption.
