Powys: Drivers face 70-mile diversion for 12 weeks

Advertisements

Chloe, who lives in Machynlleth, has an eight-year-son, JJ, with additional learning needs, who travels in a taxi to a special school.

“It’s 30 miles from here to his school, every day without any additional detour,” she said.

“I have spoken to him about it – he is not keen on doing the route that he may have to do, because it’s a change in his routine, which is quite difficult for him.”

Chloe said JJ’s journey to school takes an hour when the road is open – the additional detour will make the journey at least half and hour longer in each direction.

She thinks the first week when the diversion is in place could be “extremely tricky” and she may have to take time off work to take JJ to school herself if “he needs additional support in the car”.
