press release:Summary
Project status: Current
Region/county: South-east Wales
Start date: End 2014
End date: 2019
Cost: Total project costs circa £220m
Design and build contractors: Costain Ltd, with Atkins, Ch2M & RPS
This project is registered with the Considerate Constructors Scheme (external link).
Why are we doing it
The existing A465 was built in the 1960s and is a single three lane carriageway with two lanes in the uphill direction and one in the downhill direction. A regional traffic study in 1990 identified the need to improve this road. This improvement to the A465 is critical to the social and economic regeneration of the Heads of the Valleys area.
The width of the road restricts traffic flow and opportunities for safe overtaking. In many areas there is poor visibility. Accidents on this stretch are concentrated around junctions and areas with poor visibility
This improvement to the A465 is critical to the social and economic regeneration of the Heads of the Valleys area. It will improve access to key services, jobs and markets supporting inward investment to areas such as the Ebbw Vale Enterprise Zone.
Current progress
Some of the construction progress to date includes:
2 new bridges at Glanbaiden roundabout have been completed and will be open to traffic soon.
The concrete arch bridge at Gilwern has been erected and the traffic is running through the arch. This bridge is the largest of its type in the world.
The footbridge at Gilwern has been lifted into place and will soon be open for use.
Extensive work has been carried out along the length of the scheme to steepen the surrounding ground and enable widening of the carriageway.
The works have included the construction of 6200m of retaining walls to date and installation of over 6000 soil nails.
The 2 road bridges at Saleyard are nearing completion. These will be open for traffic use before the end of 2017.
A total of 33 diversions to Statutory Undertaker apparatus (water mains, gas mains, phone lines and electricity supplies etc.) have been completed. These have included major diversions work to two high pressure gas mains and a water main that required a new 1.5m wide, 100m long tunnel at a depth of 20m below the surface.
The treatment of a number of old mine workings uncovered near the Brynmawr junction.
The abutments for the Gateway Bridge at bridge at Brynmawr have been completed. Work will begin on the crossing structure at the end of Summer 2017.
Over 4000 trees have been planted within the scheme footprint.

How we consulted
We consulted on improvements to the A465 between Abergavenny and Hirwaun in 1994 as part of the process to develop the preferred route for the whole project.
In 2011 we held a series of public information exhibitions, presentations to local interest groups and meetings with local landowners and businesses We gathered information at these events to help the team understand how this section fit with local priorities, objectives and policies. This influenced the scheme design.
We held exhibitions of the draft orders in November 2013. These provided details of the final scheme which we then took through the statutory planning process.
An independent inspector held a public local inquiry in March & April 2014, where supporters and objectors to the scheme were able to present their case.
Alternative routes proposed by objectors were considered in a public inquiry alongside our published scheme.

Broke the derailleur hanger off. Single speed for the rest of the ride back to the start. Thankfully it was gravel and pavement and not any more mud.
The chain has no slack in it at all. Wish I could get the rest of my SS chains that tight.

Beyonce's "Single Ladies" seems to be Violet's favorite song. When the song started, she burst out into a huge grin, happily shouted "The Uh-Oh Song!", and ran to the dancefloor.
(And then she hid under the table just before Lady GaGa came on.)
