A LARGE willow tree is in danger of collapse on a busy county road.

Ringway Worcestershire said the tree, along the A442 Hampton Lovett, near Droitwich, needs to be removed.

To allow this to safely happen, two-way traffic lights will be in place, with work expected to commence at 1pm.

Ringway Worcestershire apologised for any delays the urgent works may cause.
