A STATEMENT has been released to clear-up confusion over a planned road closure.

Signs erected by Balfour Beatty earlier this week gave misleading information that the A438 Brecon Road from Hereford would be closed this Saturday and Sunday at Bridge Sollars.

However, the road will be fully open over the weekend and the resurfacing work will take place on Friday November 17 and Monday November 20.

A spokesman for Herefordshire Council said: “Balfour Beatty is aware of the confusion and electronic signs will be placed on site today.

"The road is fully open over the weekend and Balfour Beatty apologise for any confusion caused by the signage.”
