Families living in Forge Mews have been trapped in their street since the Old Bassaleg Bridge into Newport was closed by the city s Labour-run authority amid safety fears.
Residents living on a Welsh cul-de-sac who have been cut off for two years after the council closed a bridge have now been told the structure is beyond repair until 2027.
The bridge closed because it was supposedly at risk of collapse and experts were brought into advise on its reopening, but it emerged consultants were paid around £200,000.
Neighbours, who are even planning a second birthday party to mark the closure of Old Bassaleg Bridge, are furious at being left cut off from the rest of the city in Newport, Gwent.
