Rotherwas Relief Road Plans on View

The recently unveiled plans for a new £6 million access road to Rotherwas are to go on view so people can have their say.

The plans will be going on show in the reception area at the council's planning offices in Blueschool House, on Hereford's Blueschool Street, starting on Monday next week, September 23.

Visitors will be able to see the plans from 10am to 5pm each day - and on the first day, Monday, September 23, officers from the Council will be on hand to answer any questions.

The Council expects that the planning application will be considered before the end of the year - however, several statutory organisations, including the Highways Agency, will have to be consulted before the application can be decided.

Once approved, land will have to be acquired along the route of the road.

Construction could start in 2005 with completion by 2007.
