Highways teams worked day and night to clear debris and pump away water, with a final clean‑up completed earlier today. A road sweeper lorry carried out the finishing touches before the route was reopened to traffic.
The council thanked the public for their patience during the closure and praised the efforts of staff who ensured the busy junction could be made safe again.
Responsibility for repairs
While the roundabout is now open, the council has stressed that the underlying repair work is not its responsibility. The culvert and sewer beneath the junction require major repairs, which will involve a 12‑foot excavation once the demolition of the nearby Cwmfelin Club has been completed.
Responsibility for those works lies with the members of the Cwmfelin Club and their insurer, not Swansea Council. Until the repairs are carried out, the risk of flooding remains. Officials cautioned that if heavy rain overwhelms the pumps, water could return to the junction.
