PARKING charges are changing in Herefordshire today, and the council says it will make it easier than ever to know where to park. The roads chief defended the council s decision to put prices up, with on-street parking in Hereford rising from £1 for one hour to £2. Other rises at city centre car parks include Bath Street, the bus station, Garrick House and Union Walk rising from 20p for one hour, 60p for two and three hours, and £1 for up to four hours on Mondays to Saturdays. On the same day for Gaol Street, Maylord Orchards and West Street, prices will rise by 30p for one hour, 60p for two hours, 80p for three hours and 40p for up to four hours.
As well as that change, the council said that due to very low attendance figures, the Leominster testing centre in Broad Street car park will be replaced with a mobile testing unit rotated between Leominster and and Wilton Road car park in Ross-on-Wye.
Leominster s coronavirus testing site is closing.

I would like to encourage anyone with Covid symptoms to book a test and self-isolate, to help stop the spread of the virus.”
