The reopened Tal-y-Cafn bridge
THE Tal-y-Cafn bridge in the Conwy Valley which was closed for maintenance has reopened on schedule.
The bridge, which closed five weeks ago, is the only crossing over the River Conwy between Llanrwst and Conwy. It necessitated a 12 miles long diversion.
The work included replacing waterproofing on the concrete deck; replacing joints; upgrading drainage; repairing concrete and resurfacing.
A spokesperson for Conwy County Borough Council said: "We’re pleased that Tal Y Cafn re-opened to traffic and pedestrians today on schedule following five weeks of repair work.
"We’d like to thank everyone for their patience while this essential maintenance work was carried out."
