Carriageway resurfacing to take place in Broughton

Thursday, 27 March 2025 10:33

Funding has been secured to carry out carriageway resurfacing on the A5104 Chester Road in Broughton.

The work, which is due to start on Monday, 31st March and is expected to take approximately three weeks, will take place between the roundabout near St Mary’s Church and the roundabout near Aldi.

To facilitate the works a road closure with a signed diversion route will be in place between 7pm and 5am to ensure the safety of the workforce and road users.

Access to individual properties and businesses will be maintained although short delays may be encountered.

Flintshire County Council and the appointed contractor Tarmac Trading Ltd apologise for any delay or disruption that may be caused as a consequence of this essential maintenance work.
