Traffic Collision near HirwaunAnother day of chaos on the main Aberdare road leading north from the town…

Drivers experienced long delays today on the the A4059 road between Aberdare and Hirwaun due to a traffic collision.

A local grandmother driving home narrowly escaped with her life after being shunted from behind by a lorry.

Closure of the Llwydcoed by-pass road last week due to subsidence problems has caused an enormous increase in traffic on the A4059, leading to traffic tailbacks from Hirwaun to Trecynon during peak hours.

Local residents today expressed their concern that a fatality is inevitable unless Rhondda Cynon Taf Council re-open the Llwydcoed road as to matter of urgency to ease traffic congestion.
