Night time road closures in Llanelli for essential road works

MOTORISTS are being advised of a series of planned night time closures in Llanelli whilst essential road improvement works are carried out later this month.

Carmarthenshire County Council has programmed the road surfacing works to take place during the night over the next month at Parc Trostre, Sandy Road, Pembrey Road and Queen Victoria Road, Llanelli, to avoid the busiest periods. Diversions will be in place.

A section of B4304 Parc Trostre Roundabout near ATS will be closed from Wednesday, October 30 between 7pm and 6am for up to four nights.

A section of Sandy Road, between its junction with Denham Avenue to the entrance to Coleg Sir Gâr, will be closed between 7pm and 6am on November 11-22 for up to nine nights.

A section of Pembrey Road, from its junction of Chapman Street to New Road, will be closed between 7pm and 6am on November 3 and 12 for up to nine nights.

Part of Queen Victoria Road and the Murray St crossroads will also be subject to night time closure between 7pm and 6am on November 10 and 15 for up to five nights

Since April the council has resurfaced 22 sections of road as part of a £2.5million investment in Carmarthenshire roads.

The sections of road being resurfaced have been identified as a priority based on road condition, usage and strategic importance.

Comprehensive traffic management will be in place whilst the works are being carried out and all schemes will be published in advance with full details available on roadworks.org.

The council said the works are unavoidable and have thanked members of the public in advance for their cooperation.

The council’s executive board member for transport, Cllr Hazel Evans said: “This is a significant amount of money that we have secured to improve our roads in the county. All roadworks will be publicised in advance so motorists can plan journeys to avoid the area and take an alternative route. We will minimise as far as possible the impact on road users by careful planning, however, some disruption cannot be avoided, so please bear with us. We thank everyone in advance for their cooperation and patience.”
