The closure is due to the number of coaches expected for the fixture from West Brom fans.

Sergeant Paul McLernon said: “I would hope that these arrangements do not affect access to your property unduly.

“However, I would ask that careful consideration is given to travel arrangements to and from your property within the affected times.

“We understand the inconvenience that this causes to residents and we will of course make every effort to open the road as quickly as possible once it is safe to do so.”
