Road closures along A44 and A483 in Powys postponed
Road closures along two of Powys' busiest routes have been postponed due to "unforeseen programming issues and poor weather".
A section of the A44 between Llangurig and Aberystwyth was planned to shut during the daytime from Monday (June 16) but has since been pushed back to later this week.
The road will be closed on Friday (June 20) from 7am to 7pm, then reopen for the weekend before closing again for five days from Monday, June 23, to Friday, June 27.
The Welsh Government explained that the road closure between Ty'n y Cwm and Sweet Lamb, Pantmawr was delayed due to poor weather.

All works are being planned to avoid roadworks on the A44 during the National Road Cycling Championships 2025 in Aberystwyth which takes place on Friday, June 27, and Sunday, June 29.
"We appreciate this has caused some confusion and we apologise for the inconvenience this may have caused," Traffic Wales said.
"After liaising with Powys County Council, we can now confirm that these works have been postponed due to unforeseen programming issues and poor weather."
Night-time roadworks from 7pm to 6am along the A483 and A489 Newtown Bypass were also due to start earlier this week but have also been postponed until Wednesday, June 25, to Monday, June 30, again "due to unforeseen programming issues".

High winds causing chaos on the roads as Severn Bridge closes
There are severe delays across the south Wales road network this morning as unprecedented levels of wind and rain are causing chaos on the roads. The M48 Severn Bridge has closed in both directions, according to National Highways, due to "high winds" and traffic is being diverted over the M4 Prince of Wales Bridge, where an increase in traffic is causing delays of 20 minutes for drivers heading over the border. There are also delays reported across the M4 in Newport, as well as on the A4232 in Cardiff, and Traffic Wales has warned drivers of "poor driving conditions."
