The B4347 at Newcastle was closed from 7pm on Friday, 20th September due to a one vehicle road traffic collision.

A section of telegraph pole was damaged and the South Wales Fire and Rescue Service closed the road until BT replaced the pole.

Drivers heading from Monmouth were advised to approach Skenfrith and Cross Ash via an alternative route.

The driver was attended to by paramedics at the scene. The road has now been re-opened.
