Construction News Image
Further funding has been secured for a roads improvement project in Anglesey, Wales.

The Welsh Government has awarded £75,000 towards upgrading the A545 in Beaumaris, which has been affected by severe weather conditions in recent years.

Beaumaris Town Council are also investing £60,000 in the scheme, while £24,000 is being provided from the Isle of Anglesey County Council.

The project involves carrying out slope stabilisation works which will help strengthen the road's resilience.

The funding is in addition to the £374,000 announced last month by the Welsh Government to support the local authority with repair costs caused by extreme weather in November 2017. This included a separate landslip on the A545 which resulted in the road being closed for several days.

Welsh Government Transport Secretary Ken Skates said: "I'm pleased the £75,000 grant from our Local Transport Fund will enable works which will improve the A545 bringing greater security to people in the area and helping safeguard the route in the event of future severe weather conditions."
