A465 Section 2: Draft Orders Exhibitions‏ Re: Clydach Gorge

I had a quick look but can't work out whether this has any impact on any of the caves in the Clydach gorge?
 
If I'm reading the plans correctly.....

There will be a second carraigeway up and westwards of the existing road.  It looks like being at the level of the Drum and Monkey
pub -which will alas be demolished. 

If so,  the caves in the gorge (Nant Rhin, Capel, etc ) will not be affected.  Ogof Craig Y ffynnon is much further up so
also shouldn't be affected.  Waterfall cave looks close to the proposed route. 

I guess during the work access might be poor and I'm sure it will  generate lots of pollution.

....It might just uncover some interesting stuff though......
