flag A fuel spill from a lorry crash on October 24, 2025, caused the closure of a 300-meter stretch of the A49 near Woofferton, leading to traffic diversions through nearby residential roads in Little Hereford. flag Resident Chris Ham criticized the full closure, arguing earlier cleanup could have allowed restricted access and reduced damage to local roads. flag National Highways stated safety was paramount due to the spill of three-quarters of a tank of fuel, which severely damaged the road surface and required resurfacing. flag The agency emphasized it worked quickly with specialist teams and reopened the road as soon as conditions allowed.
