At the August 2013 date of the view from Station Road, major engineering work was in progress on widening the A465 Heads of the Valleys Road from three lanes to four lanes (dual carriageway with 2 lanes each way). Work on this section of the A465 from the nearby Nant-y-bwch roundabout to Intermediate Road Bridge near Brynmawr began in 2012 and is scheduled for completion in 2015.
