Residents and visitors in Newtown have been advised of a further update from Hafren Dyfrdwy regarding the burst water pipe on the A483 between Newtown and Welshpool, leading to a road closure and potential traffic disruptions in the area.

In an update from Hafren Dyfrdwy, they've said that teams are actively working to fix the burst water pipe on the A483, but due to the pipe being encased in concrete, the process is taking longer than initially anticipated. Upon reaching the burst pipe, the necessary replacement pipe and fittings are readily available on site for immediate installation.

    The damage caused by the burst pipe necessitates extensive digging, indicating that the road closure is likely to remain in effect until at least tomorrow (Friday 5th June 2024).

    Motorists are advised to plan their journeys accordingly and adhere to the signed diversion routes in place to ensure smooth traffic flow in the area.

    A spokesperson for Hafren Dyfrdwy assured that their teams are working diligently to resolve the issue and restore the affected area to its normal state as swiftly and safely as possible, understanding the inconvenience caused to the local community.

    The affected section of the A483 is currently closed between the Nags Head, Garthmyl, and the junction for Montgomery in Abermule, with a comprehensive diversion put in place to guide drivers around the closure.
