The Baton is expected to arrive back at the Cathedral at around 3.30pm
There will be nine Batonbearers carrying the Baton through Hereford who were nominated in recognition of their contributions to the local community and being an inspiration to others.
To help ensure safety of people involved with the celebrations and lining the route, West Street, Broad Street, King Street, Bridge Street, St Martins Street, Quay Street and part of Castle Street will be closed to traffic for a maximum of two hours between 2pm and 4pm disruption will kept to a minimum with roads being re-opened as soon as possible.
