Funding deal agreed for A38 improvements

Funding for a package to upgrade part of the A38 in Worcestershire has been approved by the Government.
The works will improve a 7.5 mile stretch of the route near Bromsgrove between the M5 Junction 4 and the A38/B4094.
A new cycle and pedestrian corridor will also be built along with new crossings and overbridges.
The £43m investment is set to help improve journeys around Bromsgrove.
Construction is expected to start in January 2023 with the scheme opening to the public by the end of 2025.
