Mountain road turns into waterfall as flooding hits Wales

A mountain road has turned into a waterfall as torrential rain batters Wales. The Bwlch Mountain road is partially closed following a blocket culvert which resulted in rocks and heavy rainwater rushing over the mountain.

It is understood to have occurred before 7am this morning and some early commuters were able to pass by before the road was shut off. One video shows water rolling off the mountain onto the road in a waterfall effect.

Rocks and debris can be seen strewn across the highway as a truck is parked up nearby with hazard lights on, with the driver describing the road as "crazy". Drivers can get to the Rhondda from Bridgend through Gilfach Goch.
