A DOZEN signs have been removed from an accident black spot in the north of the county because of safety concerns.

The signs have been removed from the A4110 Mortimer's Cross, near Leominster, this week by Herefordshire Council/Balfour Beatty Living Places.

They said the junction is an accident cluster site and signs can distract road users and reduce visibility.

The signs and stakes in the ground could cause injury in a collision.
