Part of the Heads of the Valleys Road (the A465) will be closed between Brynmawr and Ebbw Vale from this evening until Monday morning.

It is part of the upgrading of the route between Gilwern and Brynmawr.

The stretch affected is:

  • From Brynmawr roundabout where the A467 from Abertillery, Blaina and Brynmawr and the A4047 from Brynmawr town joins the A465 Heads of the Valleys trunk road in the west;

  • To Glanbaiden roundabout in the East where the A465 meets the A4077 Abergavenny Road and the B4246 (locally ‘the Govilon Road’).

The entire project is expected to be finished later this year.
