LONG queues of traffic are currently building in all directions on a busy roundabout because of roadworks.

Impatient drivers fed up waiting were making U-turns in the road because of the temporary traffic lights on the Blackpole roundabout.

Long queues were building from all directions on Bilford Road, Windermere Drive and Blackpole Road.

Roadworks are currently being carried out by Severn Trent Water which were due to finish today according to the Worcestershire Highways one.network map.

One driver said: "The cars along Bilford Road didn't seem to be moving along at all.

"You could see that people were getting bored waiting and were doing U-turns in the road.

"It was start stop until I had just got past Tudor Grange Academy but then it didn't seem to move for ages.

"I could see the queue stretching under the railway tunnel and to the roundabout.

"This wasn't even at rush hour so I dread to think what it will be like when it's time for the school run."

Worcestershire County Council and Severn Trent Water have been contacted for a comment.
