The closure is necessary as telecommunications network company Openreach will be carrying out pole testing works and due to the likelihood of danger to the public while these works are being carried out, Herefordshire Council said.
The road is expected to be closed from 9.30am to 3.30pm on November 19.
A diversion route will be in place for drivers affected by the closure, with traffic to be diverted via the C1148, A4103, A417, and A438 and vice versa
