A CEMENT mixer lorry has overturned on the A451 Worcester Cross roundabout near Comberton Hill.

The HGV is on its side overhanging a pedestrian subway and recovery teams are using cranes to get the vehicle upright.

Emergency services are at the scene but there have been no injuries and no-one is trapped.

West Mercia Police, which was alerted to the incident at 7am this morning, has closed Oxford Street and the roundabout and urged motorists to find alternative routes.

There is significant traffic congestion in the area but diversions are in place along Green Street.

At 8.23am it was predicted recovery of the lorry would take two to three hours.
