IT IS NOT just roadworks that will be causing disruption this weekend - but also the trains.

On Sunday, October 27, and three weekends in November (2 - 3, 9 - 10, 16 - 17), Network Rail will be carrying out upgrade works along the North Wales route.

Services between London and North Wales will start/terminate at Chester, where connections for rail replacement services will be available to/from Holyhead.

Network Rail are delivering £50m of investment on the North Wales Coast, as part of their Railway Upgrade Plan.

A spokesperson for Network Rail said: "This major upgrade project includes installing a new signalling system from Shotton to Colwyn Bay and upgrading track, increasing the resilience and reliability of the railway in North Wales.

"Recovery work along the North Wales coast will continue over the coming months including removing old signalling equipment, such as redundant cables, as part of the North Wales railway upgrade project."

Earlier this week, it was reported that motorists face months of roadworks in Llandudno Junction. A sign is in place on the roundabout - that leads off to Ffordd 6G Road, Conway Road, New Road and Ferndale Road - stating that roadworks will be in place from October 21 until May 2020.

The works - which include temporary traffic lights and take in New Road and 90m length from the bus shelters off the roundabout - are in relation to the new Lidl, being constructed on the site of the former Arriva bus depot and North Wales Weekly News / Daily Post sites.

The German discount retailer confirmed this element of the highways works are set to be completed in November.

Further works - until the end of the year - will then be contained within the development site.

In the new year, Lidl will also install a new roundabout on the New Road/Glan y Mor Road.

A spokesperson from Lidl said: “Infrastructure works connected to the construction of the new Lidl store at Llandudno Junction have now commenced. Traffic management measures have been agreed with the local highways authority and these are in place in order to keep highways disruption to a minimum.

“We would like to apologise for any inconvenience caused during these works.”

Fears have been raised how the above travel disruption will impact on this weekend's Gwledd Conwy Feast.

Cllr Mike Priestly, of Marl Ward, said: "I have asked if the works can be suspended for the Conwy Food Feast. I am concerned about the weekend and the impact on the local businesses in the area."

The heavy rain is also expected to have an impact on the event.

On Saturday, there is a yellow weather warning for rain in place for Conwy.

A spokesperson for the Met Office said: "After a very unsettled start to Saturday, the rain will gradually push South Eastwards during the afternoon leaving brighter weather with sunny spells developing later. Maximum temperature 14 °C."
