Looking towards Abergavenny from Gilwern ( Abergavenny turn sign just visible), The A465 on a dull March day in 2009. Interesting area if Pylons rock your boat .

Vegetation clearance has started on the right and the plastic sheeting is to stop badgers.

This is looking towards the A40 at Abergavenny and marks the end of the Heads of Valleys. This April 2005 picture shows work on dualling has yet to commence.

Vegetation clearance has started when this picture was taken in April 2005. This will become a GSJ.
Notice the services sign still in situ.

This bridge will soon bite the dust and some of the trees already have.

This was a Shell garage and Little Chef. Now the contractors have commandeered it.

This former garage is on the opposite side of the roundabout. It was used as a furniture store before being compulsary purchased.

Looking east at Gilwern Roundabout. Vegetation clearance has already taken place here in April 2005 as construction of a dual carriageway will soon begin.

Gilwern Roundabout is in the distance. It seems odd to resurface this road when it will shortly be dug up.

Looking west from a bridge as work to dual this stretch is about to get underway. The catseyes from when this was S3 are still in situ where the double white lines change over making night driving a weird experience.

The pylons on the left are new and have been moved to allow enough space for dualling.

Newly erected sign on the eastbound A465 approaching the Brynmawr roundabout. This S3 section of the heads of the valleys is due to be dualled sometime in the next few years - the sign seems to be from the future! ......Its probably been made factually incorrect to help drivers who have to do a u-turn after entering the road from the B4560.
