Resurfacing and water main upgrades are set to shut roads across Ceredigion.
These closures affect Brynhoffnant, Glynarthen, Synod Inn, Pentre’r Bryn, and New Quay.
The works in Brynhoffnant and Glynarthen, which began on November 27, will see the U5080 road closed for about nine days.
This closure is to allow the necessary road resurfacing work to take place, according to the Public Notice Portal (https://publicnoticeportal.uk/).
An alternative route for north-eastbound traffic, from a point south of the closure, has been outlined by the council.
This diversion measures approximately 1.1 miles.
Alternative routes have also been earmarked for northbound and eastbound traffic, covering 1.4 miles and 2.5 miles respectively.
On December 1, the council began its second set of road closures on the A486 between Synod Inn and Pentre’r Bryn.
This closure is part of a 14-week programme to replace the existing asbestos cement mains, to be carried out by Welsh Water.
Three distinct alternative routes have been proposed for north-west-bound traffic and those using the U5125 Lôn Y Felin.
The longest of these diversions spans approximately 10.5 miles.
The final set of road closures affects New Quay, where the C1006, Mason’s Street Rear Lane, Mason Street, and Penrhiw Pistyll Lane have been temporarily closed.
The closure, which also started on December 1, is linked to Welsh Water’s pipe replacement work, lasting an estimated 13 weeks.
The diversions for these closures vary from 1.4 miles to 1.2 miles, depending on the traffic direction and specific road affected.
In all cases, pedestrian access continues to be preserved.
All ordered closures may continue in force for 18 months to cover any unexpected delays, ensuring the council and Welsh Water have adequate time to complete their work.
