Time something was done with the holes in the roundabout between Chapel Street and Arvon Ave, before there is a nasty accident.

In the last few days I have done a lot of driving around North Wales sorting out Car Club Driving Routes and have been astonished about the amount of resurfacing that has been done and is still on going.  There are large areas on many major and minor roads that have been completely resurfaced (not patched) as far away as Dolgellau, Morfa Nevin, Bala and the Ruthin area to name but a few.  They are laying the "silent" running black top which is great to drive on giving very little road and tyre noise.

Many of the roads I have seen resurfaced are B Class roads and ones that have very little traffic (which is why we use them!).   ;)

And the traffic coming off the A55 as a result is "clogging up" Conwy, so rather slow going!

All seems to be running on the A55 and through the Conwy tunnel OK now, and surrounding roads in Deganwy and Conwy itself

A55 closed westbound because of animal incursions.

It always amazes me that large sections of the A55 are completely unlit at night. We can apparently afford to have street lighting along little used side roads, but not along the main highway through North Wales?

Indeed Dave, it does get pretty hairy driving on certain parts of the A55 in the hours of darkness.

When the weather is bad, it's nigh on terrifying....... and try overtaking a truck with water flying up the windscreen at you!
