Bontnewydd Flood Alleviation Scheme

The proposed scheme comprises flood risk management works at several locations within Bontnewydd, including works adjacent to the Afon Beuno and Afon Gwyrfai. The works are expected to include the construction of reinforced concrete flood defence walls, an earth flood bund, strengthening and replacement of existing flood defence structures, partial demolition of an existing stone wall obstruction, drainage modifications, access improvements, reinstatement works and associated environmental mitigation measures. The scheme is intended to reduce flood risk to residential properties, local infrastructure and community access routes, and to improve the long-term resilience of the village. The anticipated construction period is approximately nine months.
