Ross-on-Wye Town Council has issued detailed information about upcoming resurfacing works on Walford Road.

From Ross-on-Wye Town Council:

Resurfacing Works – B4234 Walford Road.

As a result of a £11 million investment by Herefordshire Council, a number of roads across the county will benefit from being resurfaced this year.

As part of this investment, resurfacing works will be carried out on the B4234, Walford Road from Monday 1st September to (and including) Friday 5th September 2025.

The road will be closed overnight between 1900hrs and 0500hrs each night.

The works will be taking place under a road closure and will involve the removal of the existing surface course before a new layer is laid.

Where relevant, works will be undertaken to correct other highway defects including drainage.

In order to protect the surface of the road once the work is complete, they have made utility companies aware of the work schedule and they will use their statutory powers to refuse all but emergency works and new connections in this area for the next 12 months.

A fully signed diversion route will be displayed locally.

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

Herefordshire Council are sorry for any inconvenience this may cause you, but they will do all that they can to minimise the impact of their work whilst a new surface is laid.

The programme of work may change in certain circumstances, such as bad weather.

This may happen at short notice and without further written notification.

All changes will be highlighted on the advance warning signs, which you’ll find onsite at the roadworks. For the most up to date information on roadworks across the county, please visit https://one.network.

If you have any questions about these works then please call Herefordshire Council on 01432 260555.
