Flood information
Last updated: 7 January 2025, 8.45am
The University is fully open with all activities taking place as normal.
Heavy rain and rising river levels have caused localised flooding on several roads around the county, which may affect travel, so you are advised to check that your route is clear before setting off.
The Environment Agency has issued a number of flood warnings for Worcestershire. All major roads and bridges in Worcester are open as of the morning of Tuesday 7 January but the river Severn is high and still rising so it is possible that the situation could change.
Remember never to navigate through flood water as it can be dangerous. Only travel if it is safe to do so and ensure that you are prepared for the conditions.
Snow has also fallen on some parts of the region. If conditions are poor, please ensure that you travel safely and take all sensible precautions. If you are driving, please take extra care. There is some general guidance on road travel in wintery conditions on the Met Office website and on the AA website. You can find useful traffic and travel updates on the Worcester News website and also on BBC Hereford and Worcester radio.
