BT and Welsh Water are to carry out essential works in Ystrad Mynach.
As a result, the following temporary traffic management measures on the A472 Nelson Road and Caerphilly Road will begin from Monday June 20.
BT works on Caerphilly Road, Ystrad Mynach
From Monday June 20 for a period of two weeks, the southbound lane will be closed from the Royal Oak roundabout onto Caerphilly Road. This will continue to allow northbound traffic movement along Caerphilly Road. Two way traffic on Caerphilly Road will be maintained up to and south of the entrance to Trinity Fields School/Penallta Rugby Club.
Welsh Water works on the A472 Nelson Road (In front of Trinty Church Hall)
During week commencing Monday June 20, off-peak temporary traffic signals will be in place at this location to allow trial pits to be excavated to confirm the route of a new pipeline. Installation of the new water main, under 24 hour traffic signal control, will then take place on Saturday 25 and Sunday June 26.
Then, from July 21, Welsh Water will require the reintroduction of the Caerphilly Road southbound closure (as above) and off-peak temporary traffic control on the A472 Nelson Road to undertake further work on the water main.
The current A472 one way system between Royal Oak to Cwm Du roundabouts (outside the Dance Centre) will be retained alongside the additional temporary traffic management arrangements outlined above.
