Next to the lane and forcing officials to shut it down completely. The only way around now runs along a narrow single track path over Wales's highest mountain road, which can add up to 1 hour 15 minutes or more.

Local engineers have inspected the site, confirmed ongoing dangers under the surface, and started designing a permanent fix while coordinating.
