A spokesperson for Malvern Hills Safer Neighbourhood Team said: “We have also conducted reassurance and traffic patrols across the area, including diversion routes along the A4103 around Leigh Sinton and Great Malvern town centre, addressing community concerns and maintaining a visible police presence.”

A section of the A4103 near Worcester has been closed to allow essential drainage works linked to a new housing development.

The closure, in Leigh Sinton, has forced Worcestershire County Council to put a major diversion route in place, covering around 35 miles through Cradley, Bromyard, Broadwas, and Rushwick.
