A55 to close overnight for a week for carriageway resurfacing

Summarised from 3 outlets · Updated 26 Oct, 09:28 · Archive

The A55 westbound will close overnight between Old Colwyn and Glan Conwy from Monday November 2 until Saturday November 7 for resurfacing work.

The A55 westbound carriageway will close overnight between Junction 22 at Old Colwyn and Junction 19 at Glan Conwy from Monday November 2 to Saturday November 7 for resurfacing repairs. The closures will run from 7.30pm until 6am each night, with the on-slip roads at Junctions 22, 21 and 20 also fully closed. Eastbound lane two will close during these times.

All westbound traffic will be diverted via the A547 Conway Road through Colwyn Bay and Mochdre to the westbound on-slip at Junction 19. A 3 metre width restriction on the diversion route will prevent abnormal loads from using it. Vehicles over 3 metres in width will not be permitted on the A55 westbound between Junctions 22 and 19 during the closure, though designated holding bays will be available at Llanddulas westbound lay by for them to park overnight.

Traffic Wales said the work 'could result in a higher than usual level of noise at intervals' and apologised in advance for any inconvenience. Speed activated signs and variable message signs will be installed along the diversion route, with advisory 40mph signs erected. Traffic will be monitored to identify any issues and consider additional mitigation measures.

Emergency Service vehicles will be expected to use the appropriate diversion routes. The dates are described as provisional and may be subject to change.
