Four traders at the local market will not be able to trade and a further four have been relocated.

A Severn Trent spokesperson added: “There is a road closure in place along Bridge Street today whilst we carry out a repair on a burst water pipe in the area.

“Apologies for any disruption this may cause.

“You may find you're experiencing water discolouration whilst we carry out this repair. This is nothing to worry about.”
