Local Priorities Highways obstructions Message

I wanted to provide you with an update regarding Highways obstructions, which people around your area have highlighted as an issue of concern on the priority survey.

At approximately 12:30pm on the 04/07/2026, a significant fire occurred at a car garage in the Waun Wen area. Firefighters have remained at the scene throughout the day working to bring the incident under control, with support from police and the local council assisting with road closures and traffic management.
Residents are advised to keep a safe distance from the area and avoid unnecessary travel near the location. The Fire and Rescue Service has advised that the site is currently unsafe due to ongoing heat from the fire and the potential for debris to fall or be ejected from the premises.
Please follow any road closure signs and directions from emergency services. Thank you for your cooperation while crews continue to work at the scene.

If you ever experience this issue or have information regarding an incident, please report it using our online reporting tools at https://www.south-wales.police.uk, speak to an operator in our Force Communications Room via our online web chat or call the non-emergency number 101.
