GORCHYMYN TRAFFORDD YR M48 (CYFFORDD 23 (ROGIET), CAS-GWENT I GYFFORDD 2 (CYFNEWIDFA NEWHOUSE), SIR FYNWY) (GWAHARDD CERBYDAU DROS DRO) 202-

MAE GWEINIDOGION CYMRU yn bwriadu gwneud Gorchymyn o dan adran 14 o Ddeddf Rheoleiddio Traffig Ffyrdd 1984 ymhen dim llai na 7 niwrnod i ddyddiad yr Hysbysiad hwn. Mae angen y Gorchymyn arfaethedig oherwydd y tebygolrwydd o berygl i’r cyhoedd yn sgil rhwystr diogelwch diffygiol ar draffordd yr M48 rhwng Cyffordd 23 (Rogiet), Cas-gwent a Chyffordd 2 (Cyfnewidfa Newhouse) yn Sir Fynwy.

Effaith y Gorchymyn arfaethedig fydd gwahardd dros dro bob cerbyd modur rhag mynd ar y darnau o’r M48 a bennir yn yr Atodlen i’r Hysbysiad hwn.

Disgwylir y bydd y gwaharddiad, y codir arwyddion priodol yn ei gylch, yn weithredol o 00:01 o’r gloch ar 31 Awst 2026 ac yn parhau tan 23:59 o’r gloch ar 1 Mawrth 2028 neu hyd nes y caiff yr arwyddion traffig dros dro eu symud ymaith yn barhaol.

Dim ond yn ystod y dyddiadau a bennir uchod y disgwylir i’r Gorchymyn fod yn weithredol. Er hynny, bydd yn parhau’n ddilys am gyfnod o 18 mis ar y mwyaf rhag ofn y bydd angen ailamserlennu’r gwaith neu wneud gwaith canlyniadol oherwydd amgylchiadau nad oedd modd eu rhag-weld.

THE WELSH MINISTERS propose, in not less than 7 days from the date of this Notice, to make an Order under section 14 of the Road Traffic Regulation Act 1984, which is necessary due to the likelihood of danger to the public because of a defective safety barrier on the M48 motorway between Junction 23 (Rogiet), Chepstow, and Junction 2 (Newhouse Interchange) in the County of Monmouthshire.

The effect of the proposed Order will be to temporarily prohibit all motor vehicles on the lengths of the M48 described in the Schedule to this Notice.

The prohibition, which will be signed accordingly, is expected to operate from 00:01 hours on 31 August 2026 and remain in force until 23:59 hours on 1 March 2028 or until the temporary traffic signs are permanently removed.

Although the proposed Order is only expected to operate during the dates specified above, it will remain valid for a maximum period of 18 months as a contingency should the work need to be rescheduled, or consequential work is required due to unforeseen circumstances.
