The work includes removing direct access off the A55, as well as removing eight gaps in the central reservation, which allowed slow moving agricultural vehicles to cross the A55.
More than four kilometres of new and improved active travel facilities has been developed to encourage cycling and walking. The risk of flooding will be reduced on the A55 through the construction of an improved drainage system, and a larger culvert for the Afon Wig, boosting the route’s resilience.
