🚨 Major Flooding in Swansea Linked to Social Club Sinkhole 🚨
Swansea folks, it’s been a tough few days with flash floods causing chaos around Cwmbwrla! A major roundabout went underwater, homes and cars faced flooding, and sadly, human waste was spotted as waters pulled back.
The culprit? A dodgy culvert at Cwmfelin Social Club, which is set to face demolition after a massive sinkhole made it unsafe. The council has sprung into action, penned a letter to the club, and is calling for urgent talks to sort out the aftermath.
After an intense weekend of rain, emergency teams, including Swansea Council and Dŵr Cymru, have been on their toes, deploying extra pumps to tackle the water levels. They’ve got the roundabout cleared, but the road remains closed to inbound traffic for now.
Welsh Water’s hands are tied until the club is taken down, but they’re ready to jump in with repair teams as soon as they can. Leaders have made it clear: they need the club to cooperate swiftly with all parties involved to prevent future flooding mishaps.
In the meantime, road closures and equipment remain in place to safeguard against any more water woes. Here’s hoping for a speedy resolution to keep Cwmbwrla on dry ground! 🌀💧
Stay safe out there, Swansea! 🌧️👷♂️
