A BUSY Herefordshire road has been closed again for works to a railway bridge.
The C1148 Stoke Edith road, which links the A4103 Hereford to Worcester road with the A438, is closed.
The closure is due to works being carried out by Network Rail, Herefordshire Council said.
It will be in force 24 hours a day until 6am on March 10, and a diversion is in place.

It is not the first time in recent months that the road, which has a bridge over the rail lines, has been closed for works by the rail network provider.
The road previously closed for five months in November 2022, finally reopening in April 2023, after an inspection "revealed significant water damage affecting the bridge’s structural integrity".
Concrete blocks were put across the road and Network Rail apologised for taking so long to complete the "critical work", blaming unforeseen issues with water management for the work taking several months.
