Motorists warned of flood dangers

Back

A council has advised motorists to take note of road closed signs amid widespread flooding in north Herefordshire.

Herefordshire Council issued the warning, which if ignored could lead to costly car insurance claims, as melting snow left the area blighted by floods and caused the closure of several roads.

The A4113 from Walford to Leintwardine, the A4110 from Adforton to Leintwardine and the A438 at Letton are all impassable, the council said.

A council spokesman added: "The information is based on reports from local authority and police sources, but is not necessarily comprehensive.

"Conditions are liable to change at short notice - motorists are advised to take care on all routes and to comply with warning signs."
