A Herefordshire road is partially blocked after a piece of machinery has fallen into the road.
The road next to Kingsland Car Sales and Auction House (the A4110) has been partially blocked after a striking black and yellow telehandler fell into the road.
It's not currently known how the telehandler got into its position, however, we understand that it is currently blocking the left side of the busy A-road.

Telehandlers, which also can be known as telescopic handlers, are hydraulic lifting machines used to carry and place heavy materials.
Telehandlers can only be moved a short distance, however, it can extend and retract its telescopic arm without needing to move the lower half of it.
On Google Maps, the road is showing as heavily congested traffic in the area, with slower-moving traffic further up the road. The majority of the congested traffic is directly next to the Car Auction sites.
