Copilot said:
Families from Powys heading to the west Wales coast this weekend are being warned of disruption after a burst water main forced the closure of a key route into Aberystwyth.
Traffic Wales has confirmed the A44 at Llanbadarn Fawr, on the eastern approach to Aberystwyth, will remain closed throughout the weekend while Welsh Water works to repair the problem.
The closure is likely to affect motorists travelling from Mid Wales towards the coast, particularly those heading to Aberystwyth and surrounding seaside destinations during the busy summer weekend.
