They cannot be serious, with the current one way fiasco they will never find their way out ?
Some will go to Dolgellau, some Newtown and others will head off to Shrewsbury.
Now we have a councillor attending a meeting in Llandrindod ( Why Llandrindod )to talk about the problems ?? Just get rid of this system and return the towns streets as they were. It is that easy. I will never go near the place again I am sorry to say while this farce continues.
