Bad news for motorists with another crash at Cefn Bridge

Things just got worse for motorists heading to and from the coast through Welshpool – there’s now an accident on Cefn Bridge at Buttington and the Air Ambulance has just landed..

With Powys County Council reporting huge volumes of traffic this morning causing delays for motorists and problems for Welshpool shoppers this is not the news anyone wanted to hear.

Traffic is currently tailing back in both directions from the Buttington accident spot and MyWelshpool viewers are reporting more damage to the troubled bridge.

A Powys Council spokesman said there were no diversions in place or road closures within the one-way system area and that delays were down to the sheer volume of traffic in both directions.
