Plans for a £30m bypass in the Cynon Valley are due to go before councillors for discussion but they can’t approve it at the moment.
The council has applied to create a single carriageway from a new roundabout at Croesbychan on the A465 to a new roundabout off the A4059 (the Aberdare bypass) and it will go before the planning committee on Thursday, March 10 for debate.
The proposed scheme is about 2.6 km north-west of Aberdare and lies between the communities of Llwydcoed to the east and Penywaun to the west.
