THE essential safety works that have been taking place on the Menai Suspension Bridge since September will be continuing through tomorrow (October 24) during Menai Bridge Fair Day.

These works are critical to improving the safety and integrity of the Menai Suspension Bridge, including allowing all vehicular traffic to once again use the bridge once works are completed.

The programme has been developed to complete as soon as reasonably possible.

Traffic management will operate as normal, to allow at least one lane to remain open on the bridge throughout the duration of the works.

This aims to reduce disruption to residents, and ensure minimal impact on community events such as tomorrow’s Menai Bridge Fair Day.

While the bridge remains open for use, those attending the fair are reminded that traffic management measures will be in place for a single-lane closure, so should allow for more travel time and plan journeys accordingly.

Users are further encouraged to follow Traffic Wales on X/Twitter (@trafficWalesN and @TraffigCymruG) for the most up-to-date traffic information.

The traffic lights will be staffed during peak periods in the morning and afternoon to prioritise traffic flows where needed and reduce disruption.

Operatives will also be present throughout the day, as per the design of the programme, to adjust traffic management if necessary. 

These measures are in place for the safety of users of the bridge.

 Users are further reminded that the current weight restriction of 7.5T for crossing the bridge will remain in place until all works have been completed.
