EMERGENCY services are out in force this evening dealing with ‘an incident’ in the Dolgellau area.

Motorists are being advised to avoid the Ganllwyd area along the A470 and a large presence of police, fire and mountain rescue teams have been seen near Llanelltyd bridge.

North Wales Police issued a statement earlier this evening saying: “Due to an incident that we are currently dealing with in Ganllwyd by river Mawddach please keep away from the area and take alternative routes if possible. Thank you.”
