π§ Heads Up, Drivers in Carmarthenshire! π

Planning a journey between Carmarthen and Llandeilo this Friday, 26th September? Brace yourself for a detour! π The Pontargothi Bridge on the A40 will be shut from 9:30 AM to 3:00 PM for crucial maintenance.

Why the closure? Itβs all about a big Bridge Deck Refurbishment Scheme aimed at tackling ongoing issues like structural wear and flooding that have plagued the area, frequently affecting local spots like the Cresselly Arms pub. The bridge is getting a much-needed facelift, including waterproofing, joint replacements, resurfacing, and even emergency debris removal to prevent future floods.

Traffic Wales advises you to plan your travels accordingly to avoid the hours-long re-route. If you’ve got errands to run or places to be, make sure to allow extra time for your journey.
Stay safe and keep those travel plans smooth! π
