A major A-road will be closed for most of the day because of a hydraulic fluid spill.
The A46 in Warwickshire is closed southbound between the A439 at the Marraway Roundabout and the A3400 at Stratford-upon-Avon due to the spillage, which has damaged the road surface.
National Highways has said it has been told a full carriageway resurfacing will be needed, and so the road will be shut for most of the day. Diversions will be set up through the local area.
