ROADWORKS on one of the busiest roads in Hereford have continued to cause havoc for motorists. 

Three-way lights are currently in place in Belmont Road, near McDonald's. 

Traffic was backed up all the way top Asda roundabout during rush hour yesterday (December 7) and motorists are again facing issues today (December 8).

Many people reported that there were no workmen on site yesterday morning, and there was nothing showing on Herefordshire Council's website indicating what the work was.

However, it now says that Openreach, which is a company owned by BT, is carrying out the work which started at 9pm on Tuesday (December 6). 

It is due to finish tonight (December 8).
