According to Herefordshire Council's website, they are set to be in place until May 15. 

It is the latest set of work carried out by National Grid in Roman Road. 

For the past 10 months, the firm has been undertaking a major project to upgrade the SAS camp in Credenhill, which has led to roadworks in the road at various times.  

Two new high-voltage cables are being installed from the Hereford North primary substation to the camp, which will enable it to adopt low-carbon technologies, such as solar panels and heat pumps, to meet net-zero ambitions.
