This is your Friday evening traffic and weather update.

We have made it to the end of the week and it is all the better because it is a bank holiday weekend.

The weather has played a blinder this week with a run of beautiful days and this weekend will be shirtsleeve weather.

But how will your journey home be, there are no major problems on the train network.

On the roads there are several flare ups on the network.

The M5 has had a bad day all round, there were tailbacks near Halesowen all morning due to a crash.

And tonight the traffic flow is slow again as a vehicle has broken down on the northbound carriageway near Oldbury.

There is congestion to Halesowen and back to the M6 junction near junction 7 of the M6.

There are also delays on the Birmingham Road in Bromsgrove and around the Merry Hill Centre in Brierley Hill.

Update: 7pm, Stourbridge Fire has just tweeted a picture of a prang on Cotes Lane, Kinver - expect delays whilst they sort it out.
