Start date: 27/04/26 End date: 19/06/26
The first phase of works on the A40 from the junction at Castle Road to the zebra crossing by the Crickhowell Fire Station was successfully delivered in early 2025. The second phase of works on the A40 extends from the zebra crossing by the Crickhowell Fire Station to the access for the Asda petrol station. Works are planned to be undertaken between Monday 27th April and Friday 19th June 2026. These essential resurfacing and improvement works are necessary to address areas of deterioration and failure, providing a smoother/safer running surface for road users, as well as improvements to drainage and pedestrian infrastructure.
Due to the complexity of delivering the work, varying traffic management arrangements will be required throughout the programme. A detailed breakdown of the proposed restrictions and programme is provided below:
