Why, you ask? Essential work is needed to install permanent traffic signals. But don’t worry, we’ve got the info you need to keep you moving. 😊

🔄 Diversions will steer you via the B4306, B4309, and vice versa, and access for residents is sorted. There’s a detailed diversion map to guide you.

Traffic Updates
🚌 Unfortunately, the direct bus route between Pontyberem and Ponthenri is off the cards while this is happening. But fear not! A temporary bus service, the 195A operated by First Cymru, will be stepping in to fill the gap. It will provide connections in Pontiets with services for Maengwynne, Five Roads, and Cynheidre.

Going further? Service 195 will still take you between Llanelli and Carmarthen, while service 197 takes a detour via Ponthenri. And, the 195A shuttle will hop between Llanelli, Five Roads, and Pontiets.

Stay sharp, travel safe, and make sure to check your routes before you head out! Let’s get through these weeks smoothly. 💪#CarmarthenshireRoadUpdates #TravelSafe
