Road closed sign.
A VILLAGE road closure – which is forcing motorists to take a 22-mile diversion – has been extended to the end of the month.
The B5479 from Glyn Road to the Ysguborissa junction in Selattyn was initially closed on July 20.
There had been hopes it would reopen on August 5, but it will now be closed until Tuesday, August 30 to allow Severn Trent to renew a water main.

According to AA Route Planner the diversion takes around 45 minutes.
