WHEN the fir trees begin to line the streets of the city, you know it must be that time of the year again.

Worcester City Council has begun to decorate the city centre ahead of the lights switch-on which will take place on Saturday, November 23.

The first trees were placed at Guildhall and St Andrew's Gardens on Tuesday (November 12).

A spokesperson for the city council said: "To allow the Cathedral Island tree to be put in place, the College Street roundabout turning lanes will be closed between 9.30am and 12.30pm
