The MP for Leominster, Bill Wiggin, has raised the number of accidents on the A49 in Parliament.听

In 2005 villagers in Ashton launched a safety campaign, after there were three deaths in crashes near the village in the space of eight months. In response the Highways Agency installed a vehicle-activated sign warning drivers, near a bend where there had been several crashes.

Villagers in Wellington Heath campaigned for a lower speed limit and a crash barrier, after several houses in the village were hit by vehicles.

This map shows where some of the accidents have happened:

1. Ashton

Two killed when two lorries collide in June 2004. A man dies after a crash between a car and a tipper truck in April 2006.

2. Lyde

Two brothers died and another two people were injured in a collision involving two cars in November 2007

3. Dinmore Manor

A man died in November 2005 when the van he was in veered off the carriageway near to the turning to Dinmore Manor.
