Arriva buses have announced diversions that will take place in Buckley due to roadworks taking place. 

Roadworks are taking place on the A549 Pren Hill, which is the main road between Buckley and Mynydd Isa. 

These roadworks are set to take place from 8am on October 29 until 6pm on October 30 as well as 8am on November 5 and 6pm on November 6. 

Whilst a diversion is in place there will be no services serving the bus stop outside The Black Lion, instead all services will operate via the bus stop outside Buckley Town Council Offices.  

The X4 and 5 services to Mold will remain the same until it reaches the cross entering via Hibberts Corner. 

The bus will then go down Liverpool Road to the Medical centre on Alltami Road before turning left and heading down to Bryn Road.

The bus will then turn left past Argoed School to Chambers Lane where it will turn left towards Mold Road before turning right and resuming the normal route.

Heading into Chester is the reverse of this diversion.

The 4 and 4s to Mold will also follow the regular route until Buckley Cross at which it will enter via Hibberts corner and leave via the cross. 

The bus will then follow Liverpool Road before turning left at the medical centre and continuing down Alltami Road. 

The bus will then turn into Bryn Road and past the Argoed school, continuing as normal through to Mold. 

The return bus will also follow the reverse of this route. 

Additional roadworks are also taking place on the B5125 in Hawarden which may further impact delays. 

The roadworks in Hawarden are in place from October 31 until November 14. 

Arriva Wales has confirmed that the roadworks will cause delays, however the diversions put in place have been done so to try and minimise the impact to services.
