⚠️ | We’ve already witnessed a number of HGVs having to turn around on the A49 at Holmer due to the road closure between Starting Gate and Lyde.

With raised ironworks and a lot of parked vehicles on the side of the road — the route through the Hereford Point development really isn’t suitable for large vehicles.

Please take note of road closure signs and use official diversions.

UPDATE❗️| West Mercia Police have provided an update on a road closure that caused significant congestion and delays in Leominster earlier today.

The A44 was closed at Bargates for a couple of hours — after a collision involving a vehicle and a telephone pole.

From West Mercia Police:

“As most of you will have seen in the news today, a substantial BT command pole which was damaged by a lorry, caused considerable delays and traffic mayhem.

“The pole was deemed dangerous and likely to fall over onto the highway at any given point by BT engineers, so there was no choice but to close the road.

“We want to say thank you to drivers for your patience and understanding, whilst we managed the traffic around the incident, which proved very tricky due to the small side roads and HGV lorries (this is the reason why we had to shut and restrict traffic on Ryelands Road and Green Lane).

“Thankfully, as soon as the pole was removed, we were able to lift the restrictions, but we appreciate it may had added some considerable time and some map/satnav reading may have been required by drivers.”

NEWS | ‘Operation Night Owl’ proves to be a success for officers from Herefordshire & Powys. 🚨

From West Mercia Police:

On Thursday evening — Leominster Safer Neighbourhood Team undertook their 4th joint partner working operation with colleagues from Dyfed Powys Police.

This activity went on throughout the evening, night and morning.

This operation enables a more targeted approach with more patrols in preventing and deterring rural crime that continues to blight our communities.

Between the forces, we had 18 double crewed marked and unmarked cars and though the weather was dreadful here is a taster of what happened on shift:

One stolen vehicle was recovered with the driver being dealt with by police accordingly for that, along with having no licence and insurance.

Another vehicle was recovered for no insurance whilst another for no tax. Drivers were reported accordingly for those offences and vehicles seized.

Officers attended incidents relating to suspicious activity in our rural area during which disturbed a vehicle that had information to rural crime.

This vehicle did fail to stop for police but given the dreadful weather and risk, officers did not engage, enquiries are ongoing regarding this matter.

Officers also arrested a person on suspicion of drug driving and had a positive stop search of drugs.

UK NEWS 🇬🇧 | Richard Hammond has purchased a stunning six bedroom Georgian Manor House in Wales.

Hammond has reportedly purchased the property for around £2 million following his split from his wife Mindy — according to an article in The Sun today.

The former Top Gear host had previously lived in Bollitree Castle in Herefordshire — and was often seen out and about in public in the area, especially in Ross-on-Wye and Hereford.

Hammond also invested locally — owning The Smallest Cog, a classic car restoration business based in Hereford.
