Chirk roadworks could run into next week
Roadworks that have brought traffic problems to Chirk could run into next week.
Road maintenance and electricity network repairs have combined to bring long queues through the town on the Welsh border.
Resurfacing work on the main, Holyhead Road should have been finished by September 1.
But a spokesman for Wrexham Council said the work had been held up by the bank holiday weekend.
Residents have been calling for the resurfacing in the area of the Kronospan factory for months. Councillor Terry Evans said the resurfacing was much needed.
Mr Rob Povey, from the council said: ""This is a large-scale job which requires the wholesale upgrading of ironwork, like manhole covers, as well as the laying of a replacement road surface.
"We're hoping to have the majority of the work completed by the end of this week, but we may run into early next week depending on circumstances."
As well as electricity works more road problems will be added next week with gas service works beginning at the junction between Colliery Road and Bron y Waun.
