A CRASH in Pershore has closed a main road through the town.

Station Road was shut by West Mercia Police at the junction with Queen Elizabeth Drive shortly after officers arrived at the scene.

Queen Elizabeth Drive offers road access to both Pershore Hospital and Wychavon District Council's office.

A spokesperson for West Mercia Police said: "Station Road is likely to remain closed until at least 8pm."

Drivers are being urged to find an alternative route until the road is reopened.
