Dovey Bridge Road flood at Machynlleth Sept 20 2023
The causeway needs to be finished soon, and hopefully will. These flooding events are only getting worse.
I had to make a run up o the Corris Railway this morning and found myself confronted with this on the way back.
I have an electric car, so no worries about water ingress into the engine, and I also have 4x4 response offroad and wading training. Not a smart thing to do unless you know your own and your vehicles abilities.
Interestingly for the critics of the scheme, the road under the railway bridge is bone dry, as a result of the bund and drainage scheme that is part of the same project.

Also some news about carriage 23 which I've been watching on the CCTV system from home, and some new photos of the s...
