Work to upgrade the A4042 Cwmbran ‘Rechem’ roundabout south of Pontypool is to get underway next week.The Welsh Government in conjunction with Taylor Wimpey UK Ltd will be upgrading the junction and the project is expected to take 12 weeks.The upgrade is designed to increase the operational capacity of the junction and will include widening the approaches, amendments to the central kerbing of the roundabout and changes to associated infrastructure such as traffic signs, road markings and street lighting.The existing two lane approaches to the roundabout will be maintained, but there will be narrowed lanes and a reduced speed limit for the duration of the works.Walters UK is the appointed contractor.
