Overview

• Swansea Council says only the outbound route on Carmarthen Road through the junction is open, while the southbound lane into the city centre remains closed for clean-up.
• The council believes the prolonged inundation stemmed from a previously collapsed culvert on private land that is not maintained by the authority.
• Welsh Water reports the floodwater cut power to a temporary pumping station, with teams restoring service and deploying additional pumps in a multi‑agency effort.
• New footage shows human faeces on the roadway as waters recede, and crews are continuing decontamination and road-surface checks before a full reopening.
• Flash flooding on Sunday left cars submerged and forced police to shut the junction and divert traffic to Pentregethin Road.
