A major road in Swansea is set to be hit by disruption for several weeks or even months due to “essential” work costing £200,000. Wales and West Utilities has confirmed that it will shortly start work in and around Pentrepoeth Road in the Morriston area of the city.
The company has said the work - to upgrade mostly underground gas pipes - is being carried out to keep gas flowing and to ensure that local homes and businesses are heated and powered safely. You can keep up to date with the latest Swansea news by signing up to the local newsletter here.
The work will get underway next Monday (June 5). No definite end date has been announced, but it is hoped the work will conclude at some point during the autumn, meaning disruption in the area will last through the summer and likely beyond. Swansea Council has worked with the utilities company and agreed that multi-way traffic lights will be used in the area as required, with advance warning signs being erected.
