There will be access exemptions for residents to access properties where there is no other form of access.
There is a diversion in place via A449 Worcester Road, A442 Droitwich Road, A450 Worcester Road and vice versa.
A post on the Hartlebury Parish Council website said: "From July 22 and for approximately six weeks, the A450 at the bridge will be closed to through traffic to help improve the visibility and access to the Aurora School site.
"The work involves some roadside alterations and the removal of part of the bank on the inside of the bend. The traffic lights will be turned off.
"The flow of traffic along Worcester Road will be impacted due to the bridge closure and alternative routes being needed.
"Torton Lane is due to be closed to through traffic with access-only signs."
Temporary traffic signals will be in place on A449 on weekday nights from 10pm until 6am and also on weekends.
The county council website said access for pedestrians will be provided.
