TWO footpaths for walkers and cyclists are set to close for resurfacing works.

Resurfacing will take place on two pedways within St Peter's, Worcester, in October, according to St Peter's Parish Council.

In a post on Facebook, St Peter's Parish Council wrote: "The council has for many years campaigned for improvements to the parish's pedways which, after 35 years, are showing their age."

Batsford Pedway, which links Batsford Road and the Norton Road pedway, closes from October 8-11.

A section of Leven Pedway, which runs from St Peter's Drive towards Tesco, will close from October 16-23.
