New floodlights to be installed at Hereford FC
It's after the club asked for LED lighting.
The four floodlight columns at Hereford FC's Edgar Street ground are set to be replaced by LED lighting.
The club, which currently plays in National League North, had asked for lighting that would minimise the spill and glare onto surrounding areas, particularly neighbouring houses.
The ground’s owner Herefordshire Council has meanwhile appointed a contractor to demolish the ground’s derelict Blackfriars Road stand, including two of the current floodlight towers, in anticipation of a new stand incorporating student accommodation.
Somerset-based Pennys Group was awarded the job, worth up to £100,000, following a competitive tender, and is expected to carry it out before the start of the new football season in late August.
