Dolgarrog: A major road closure is happening on the A470. This is for emergency repairs by Dwr Cymru. The closure affects both directions between Maenan and Tal-y-Cafn.

Traffic Wales announced this closure follows a recent mains burst. That incident left 40,000 homes without water. The burst occurred at Bryn Colwyd works, not far from the current site.

Dwr Cymru mentioned this is a smaller leak that needs fixing. They assured it won’t affect water supplies for customers. The closure starts at 7 PM tonight and will last until 5 PM Friday.

Traffic Wales has set up a major diversion. Drivers will need to use the A55 and A5 to bypass the roadworks. Local routes are also available for those looking for shorter alternatives.

Dwr Cymru emphasized the need for this repair. They’re working hard to complete it quickly and safely. They apologize for any inconvenience caused by this closure.
