Parc Road, Llangybi, to close for Welsh Water works in July
Parc Road in Llangybi will have restrictions as Monmouthshire County Council enforces a temporary traffic regulation notice. The closure is to enable Welsh Water to carry out essential works safely. The closure will take effect on Monday, July 7, and is expected to last until Wednesday, July 9. However, the order will be in place for up to 18 months, allowing time for any potential delays. The affected section of Parc Road spans approximately 440 metres from its junction with Cochyn. During this period, properties fronting the affected lengths of road will still have reasonable access. A diversion route will be in place, taking traffic via the R106 Cwrt Bleddyn Hotel to Dowlais Brook, the R106 Dowlais Brook to Woodside Trading Estate, the R102 Oak Ridge to Llanbadoc, and the R102 Parc Road to Oak Ridge. The route will be clearly signposted to assist drivers in navigating the area. Motorists are advised to plan their journeys accordingly to avoid any disruption.
