HERE is a round-up of public notices received by the Argus over the past week:

Newport City Council has made a formal order closing Bassaleg Bridge at Forge Mews for urgent repairs.

An alternative access point for vehicles has been created on the opposite end of Forge Mews.

The alternative route for pedestrians is via bassaleg Footbridge (Park View to Forge Mews over the A467).

Emergency vehicle access is off the A467 northbound and via the temporary new access point.

The bridge will remain closed at all times while repairs are carried out.

While the work is being carried out, a 20mph speed limit will be in place lane one of the northbound carriageway of the A467 from the Bassaleg roundabout to a point approximately 100 metres past the junction with the Forge Mews temporary access road.

A 30mph speed limit is also in force on lane two of the northbound carriageway of the A467 from the Bassaleg roundabout to a point approximately 100 metres past the junction with the Forge Mews temporary access road.

The order came into force on August 30, and will remain in place for up to 17 months, or until the repairs are completed, whichever is sooner.
