Work to address safety risk from persistent flooding on Fabian Way due to begin
30 May 2025
Starting from Monday, 30th June 2025, essential drainage improvement works will begin on Fabian Way between the Jersey Marine Junction (Amazon Roundabout) and the M4 slip road.
These works are being delivered with support from The Welsh Government's Resilient Road Fund (RRF) to address persistent flooding issues that regularly affect the eastbound carriageway, cycle path and laybys during periods of heavy rainfall.
The flooding poses a significant safety risk to road users.
These improvements will reduce the risk of surface water flooding, enhance road safety and reduce long-term disruption.
The works are expected to last approximately 23 weeks. Lane closures will be in place, but every effort will be made to minimise disruption and maintain traffic flow where possible.
To ensure safety for both the workforce and the general public, traffic management will need to remain in place 24/7 throughout the Fabian Way scheme.
A council spokesperson said: “Thank you for your patience while we carry out these critical drainage improvements. Once a contractor has been appointed further details will be released and updates will be provided as works are progressing.”
