A SPEED watch was carried out on a busy Halesowen road by the town's MP after complaints from residents.

James Morris MP was on Furnace Hill on Friday (March 15) with police to catch motorists flouting the limit.

The move came after local residents contacted him complaining about the speed traffic travels on the road. 

He said on social media: "Thank you to the local police for supporting me on Furnace Hill on Friday afternoon with a Speed Watch following complaints I’d received from constituents.

"I know speeding locally has become a real concern and I will do all I can to raise your issues and support the council and police in tackling it."
