1/1 POLICE are continuing to appeal for information following a fatal road traffic collision which happened on the A465. The collision involved a blue Ford Fiesta which was in collision with a white Renault Clio between the Hirwaun and Llwydcoed crematorium junctions of the A465. Detective Sergeant Huw O’Connell of South Wales Police’s serious collision investigation unit said: “We want to hear from anyone who may have seen the blue Ford Fiesta as it was being driven between 8am and 11am on Thursday, May 13. We are aware that the vehicle had been sighted in the Gurnos, Penybryn, Galon Uchaf, Cefn Coed, Aberdare and Penywaun areas prior to the collision.
The road is closed both ways between the Skenfrith junction of the A465 and the junction with the A40 at the Hardwick roundabout. A spokeswoman for Gwent Police said: The RTC was reported to us at 8am and involved two vehicles – a fiat 500 and a Dacia Duster. A woman and a man, one from each vehicle, were taken to UHW for medical treatment. The vehicles are in the process of being recovered. Both remain in hospital, but their condition is stable. The southbound carriageway was reportedly closed just before 10.40am and the northbound carriageway is now also closed, causing congestion to roads through Abergavenny.
