Temporary Traffic Restriction on A487 in Llanrhystud: What You Need to Know

Starting on the 12th of May 2025, the Welsh Government is implementing a temporary traffic restriction on a section of the A487 trunk road in Llanrhystud, Ceredigion. This decision, made by the Welsh Ministers, aims to facilitate essential roadworks in the area.

Key Details:

• Effective Date: The order comes into force on 12th May 2025.
• Duration: The restriction will last for a maximum of 18 months, although the actual period may be shorter depending on the completion of works.
• Affected Area: The restriction applies to the section of the A487 from its junction with the B4337 to its junction with the C1127 (Lôn yr Ysgol).
• Prohibited Vehicles: During the works, all vehicles except those used by emergency services or directly involved in the roadworks will be prohibited from using the affected section.
• Operational Hours: The restriction will be enforced during specific periods starting at 7:00 PM on 12th May 2025. The end of each work period will be marked by the removal of temporary traffic signs.

Important Considerations:

• Exemptions: Emergency vehicles and vehicles involved in the roadworks are exempt from the restriction.
• Signage: The implementation of the restriction will be clearly indicated by temporary traffic signs. The restriction is only in place when these signs are visible.

This initiative is part of the government's ongoing effort to ensure road safety and improve infrastructure. Motorists are advised to plan their journeys accordingly and follow any diversion signs that may be in place.
