Following discussions with Moumouthshire County Council it was agreed to delay the reopening of the roundabout until 18:00 tomorrow evening (Tuesday 22nd).

A shuttle bus has been organised with Stagecoach to support passengers from the Govilon area.

We apologise for any convenience this may cause.

The eastern side closure will then be reinstated w/c 4th January 2016.

We would take this opportunity to inform you of a proposed change in the A465 road layout at the Glanbaiden Roundabout. Over the past few months the western side of the roundabout has been closed to traffic to allow our engineers to construct the western bridge abutments and the work has progressed extremely well.

Just before Christmas the closure moved to the eastern side of the roundabout and whilst the closure was lifted for the Christmas break, it was reinstated from 4th January 2016. As a result, traffic from Gilwern wishing to travel westbound (towards Brymawr) on the A465 will be officially routed to the Hardwick roundabout to return via the A465 to Glanbaiden. Similarly traffic wishing to enter Govilon from the westbound exit of the roundabout will be diverted back onto the A465 to the Hardwick roundabout and then return.

From Monday 11th January 2016 in addition to the closure on the east side the west side will also be closed and both sides of the roundabout will remain closed until end of April 2016 as the construction of the bridge continues. In consequence the arrangements that were in place for the west side closure will be reinstated with traffic seeking to enter Gilwern having to travel to the temporary roundabout near the site offices and return to the Glanbaiden roundabout to exit for Gilwern.


Whilst these arrangements are in place the project will be supporting the provision of a shuttle bus service specifically for residents of Govilon and Llanfoist further information can be sought from Stagecoach services.
