SIX weeks of roadworks are due to commence on the A525 at Nant y Garth later this month, which will see the road close for two days.

The work is due to start on April 17, and will include carriageway patching, road cleansing, gully emptying and the reconstruction of a damaged section of wall supporting the carriageway.

This will take place between B5429 Llysfasi to B5431 to Llanarmon Yn Ial.

Initially, the road will be closed for vehicular traffic and pedestrians from April 17-19 and thereafter, two-way temporary traffic signals will be in place for a further five weeks to undertake the retaining wall works.
