This will consist of £10million for A & B roads and £3.5million for C & U roads, and follows on from the additional £8 million the council invested in resurfacing in 2024/25.

Works will begin in April and continue throughout the summer, with initial investment focussing on the A417, A438, A466, A4103, A4112, B4203, B4214, B4216, B4224, B4225, B4348, B4355, B4360 and B4361. Further investment and on our C and Unclassified road will also take place from April, with Highway Engineers working hard to deliver additional sites.

Cllr Barry Durkin, Cabinet Member for Roads and Regulatory Services, said: “Investing in Herefordshire’s highways is a priority for this administration and we are pleased to be able to announce an additional £13.5m for works across the county in 2025/26, which builds upon our additional investment of £8 million the previous year.

“Our approach to managing Herefordshire's highways is always to carry out the right treatment at the right time in the right location, and we base this on the information gathered through our regular highways surveys. Investing in our county’s roads is a top priority, and this additional investment will help to strengthen the resilience of the network and deliver quicker, safer and smoother journeys.”
