  Llandeilo NPT have concentrated patrol in the area and have consulted with park groundsman, they have also consulted with the Local Authority environment enforcement officers who will be visiting the area.

Llandovery:

• Speeding to the A40 Llanwrda Junction
  We have liaised with the Roads Policing Unit who at this time of year carry out Operation Darwin which covers the A40 and this junction where the locals have concerns.
