Question
Will the Cabinet Minister provide the reasoning behind the lane closure on the A465 westbound between Clydach and Brynmawr?
Answer
Answered by Deputy Minister for Transport (Mark Hooper)
A routine inspection of the Clydach Gorge Viaduct identified a structural defect, so we introduced a lane closure on the westbound A465 to protect the safety of the travelling public. Repair works are progressing, and we will remove the restriction once they are complete.
