The road between Trostre roundabout and Farm Foods in Llanelli will be closed from 6pm to 6am from Monday, March 7 for tree felling works. ‌​‌​‌​​​‍‌​‌​​‌‌‌‍‌​‌‌​​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌‌​​

The works to remove large Fir Trees along the A484 link has been restricted to 6pm to 6am in order to minimise disruption with a further restriction on noise pollution to 12 midnight. ‌​‌​‌​​​‍‌​‌​​‌‌‌‍‌​‌‌​​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌‌​​

It will include chainsaw activity; however the trees will be being removed from site to an agreed location for further grinding and chipping to eliminate noise pollution throughout the course of the evening. ‌​‌​‌​​​‍‌​‌​​‌‌‌‍‌​‌‌​​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌‌​​

The works are expected to take approximately 10 days to complete due to the restricted working hours. ‌​‌​‌​​​‍‌​‌​​‌‌‌‍‌​‌‌​​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌‌​​
