A Herefordshire road will close for six days next month, with the route shut for 24 hours a day.

The C1298 from B4224 to Sapness House, Sollers Hope will be closed from December 6 to December 12.

The closure will be in place so that works can be carried out on the rural road, including clearance of vegetation, trees and reinforcement bank works.

A letter from Balfour Beatty said: "Works will be taking place under a full road closure, starting on Friday 6th December 2024 to (and including) Thursday 12th December 2024.

"The type of work we’re doing will mean that the road will be closed for 24 hours each day.

"We will do all we can to provide vehicular access to properties, although there may be times when we are not able to do so safely or there may be delays. You can get help and guidance from the dedicated marshals on site."

The fully signed diversion route will be via the Crossway Rattle Hill / C1262 White House Farm / B4224 Falcon Lane and vice versa.
