    The answer to part of your question is "two and a half miles", but dont know about the timescale.

    Tried Googling to have a look on the Llangollen website, but could not actually find a live website. Just shows "domain reserved".

    Anyone help with that?

    The extension team are still wading through reams of paperwork, which needs completing before work on the section from beyond Carrog headshunt to the new station site at Corwen starts. This government really loves red tape - we completed the three previous extensions in the time it will eventually take to plan & complete this one.
    As for the website ,we received an e-mail earlier this week from our webmaster , saying that he was changing to a new provider & that the site would be down for a few days.
