B5101 Ffrith

Published: 04/09/2017

Please see below an update regarding the work currently taking place the B5101, Ffrith, following our earlier update sent on 7 August: Tree and undergrowth removal works commenced on Monday 21 August. The removal works took longer than anticipated due to the sheer volume of fallen timber and the precarious working conditions. The majority of the clearance was completed on 31 August with only some felled timber left to remove from site. Excavation works to remove the slipped material is due to commence on Tuesday 5 September. The timeframe for this phase of the works is anticipated to take 3 weeks, but will be subject to the amount of material removed to return the slope to a stable condition. Once this has been achieved, the repair to the carriageway will commence and should take a further 2-3 weeks. We again thank you for your patience during this period and rest assured we are working hard to re-open the road in both a timely and safe manner.
