Pothole repairs to begin on major Welsh roads
A £25 million road refurbishment programme is set to begin, funding 22 projects across Wales’ strategic road network.
The work is due to repair more than 100km of road and fix and prevent around 30,000 potholes.
This set of work is separate to the tens of thousands of potholes that are set to be fixed through a local government borrowing initiative, announced in March, enabling councils to unlock £120m of funding to accelerate repairs on local roads.
This programme of works includes two bridge schemes to repair seven bridges, 18 resurfacing projects and two footway programmes covering 10 community locations throughout Wales.
Cabinet Secretary for Transport and North Wales, Ken Skates said: "Fixing our roads is a key priority.
"The comprehensive programme of works that are being delivered as part of our £25m investment will help improve the future resilience of our strategic roads network and prevent potholes.
"I am pleased to hear that some of this work has already started with more to follow in the coming months. I look forward to seeing some of the end results."
