ADVANCED WARNING OF REDSTONE ROAD CLOSURE – SPRING 2024
Tuesday, 30 January 2024
Dear Resident,
ADVANCED WARNING OF REDSTONE ROAD CLOSURE – SPRING 2024
I am writing on behalf of the A40 Llanddewi Velfrey to Redstone Cross Improvements to inform you of an upcoming road closure at the northern section of Redstone Road, near the junction at the A40. This closure will have an impact on residents and businesses in the immediate area. The purpose of this closure is to facilitate the connection to the newly constructed Redstone Bridge and slip road down onto the new A40 Trunk Road. As part of this project, we will need to remove the old road.
The A40 and Redstone Road will close at the location of the bridge and slip road on Friday 19th April 2024 at 8pm. The main A40 Trunk road will re-open on Monday 22nd April 2024 at 6am. During this period we will construct the new slip road from the existing A40 towards the north side of bridge and back down onto existing A40.
The Redstone Road section will remain closed for approximately 3.5 weeks. Please note that the closure will only affect a small section of Redstone Road at the new Redstone Bridge. During this period, direct access to Redstone Road from the A40 will not be possible. However, access from the southerly direction will be maintained, and you should see no difference in access from Narberth town centre. During this closure we will complete the stats works and upfill for the bridge connection to the south side of Redstone Bridge then re-opening to allow traffic flow from and to the A40.
Our priority will be to offer additional assistance to businesses that use large and heavy goods vehicles, and we will be reaching out to these businesses separately.
We will be arranging a drop-in Community Engagement Event on Wednesday 28th February from 10am – 6pm at Bloomfield Community Centre, Narberth. If you have any questions regarding the closure please drop-in to meet the project team who will be happy to discuss in more detail.
For the latest updates on this closure and additional information on the diversions in place, please visit
While the closure is still some time away, we wanted to provide early warning to local residents and businesses about these upcoming works. We are also in close coordination with Pembrokeshire County Council regarding this project.
If you have any queries or concerns, please feel free to contact me at 03301 071504 or via a40lvrcenquiries@alungriffiths.co.uk. For further graphical explanation of the closure, please see overleaf. We will be providing you with more information closer to the time of the closure.
Thank you for your attention to this matter.
Yours sincerely,
Matthew Davies

Mae hyn yn hanfodol ar gyfer cael gwared ar yr hen heol ac integreiddio’r seilwaith newydd yn ddiogel ac yn effeithlon.

Bydd rhan Heol Maencoch yn aros ar gau am rai wythnosau a bydd yn ailagor erbyn dydd Llun 20 Mai 2024.
Mynediad yn ystod y cau
Bydd cau’r heol yn effeithio’n benodol ar y rhan o Heol Maencoch ger y Bont Maencoch newydd:
- Bydd mynediad uniongyrchol i Heol Maencoch i’r/o’r A40 yn cael ei atal yn ystod y cyfnod hwn.
- Bydd mynediad i weddill Heol Maencoch o ganol tref Arberth o hyd.
- Bydd trigolion cyffordd Maencoch yn cael mynediad i’w/o’u cartrefi
- Byddwn yn cwblhau gwaith seilwaith angenrheidiol, gan gynnwys addasiadau i gyfleustodau a chysylltiadau’r bont, er mwyn ailagor Heol Maencoch ar gyfer llif traffig i’r/o’r A40 cyn gynted â phosibl.
- Byddwn yn cysylltu â busnesau’n uniongyrchol i drefnu logisteg ar gyfer cludo nwyddau a deunyddiau.

Phases 2A Traffic Management
On the evening of 22nd September 2023 and overnight we will be switching the traffic management to allow cars to travel along the newly constructed southbound carriageway from the Coed Ely Roundabout to Duffryn Isaf Farm, at which point it will continue on the existing section of the A4119. This will take traffic heading northbound from the South Wales Fire and Rescue HQ Roundabout, along the newly constructed section of carriageway from Duffryn Isaf Farm, toward Coed Ely Roundabout. Please note, timescales are approximate and should any changes to this phase take place, a further update will be provided. The red hatched zones on the diagram indicate our working areas.
Phase 2 Traffic Management
On the evening of 8th & 9th September 2023 and overnight we will be switching the traffic management to allow cars to travel along the newly constructed southbound carriageway from the Coed Ely Roundabout to Duffryn Isaf Farm, at which point it will continue on the existing section of the A4119. Vehicles heading northbound will continue on the old carriageway until Phase 2A, from 22nd September.
