A WORCESTERSHIRE bridge has been closed and another looks likely to shut due to rising river levels.
The Jubilee Bridge in Mill Bank, Fladbury, was closed due to high water levels today.
Worcestershire County Council also warned that it was likely Eckington Bridge would have to shut in the near future.
The river reached a height of 2.47 metres in Evesham earlier this evening, with flooding possible after the water rises above 1.90 metres.
