During a question and answer session this week with the Deputy First Minister, Ieuan Wyn Jones, the AM expressed his concern for residents of Crossroads, Gilwern.
The road, which now runs from Abergavenny to Gilwern, has resulted in higher levels of noise due to natural traffic growth. He says owners of properties, who have not been offered noise insulation under the Noise Insulation Regulations, are at greater risk of tinnitus, hearing loss, sleep disturbances and stress.
The Deputy First Minister has indicated that there are no plans to provide anything more to residents of Gilwern than the current badger fence.
Mr Ramsay said it was "unacceptable" and he is due to meet with the minister to discuss the issue further.
Addressing the Deputy First Minister, he said, "We all welcome the work that has been done on the A465, particularly in the Abergavenny area. However, you will be aware of the concerns of the residents of Crossroads in Gilwern in my constituency whose lives have been made a misery since the completion of the last phase of work due to the noise coming from the newly widened section of the A465. I know that you have been in touch with the local councillor representing those residents and that he has received the response that there are no intentions to replace the rather thin wire fence that is in place at present with a more solid fence to limit the noise coming from that road.
"Will you undertake to reconsider this issue? It is causing my constituents serious concern. While they welcome the work that has been done on the road, they do not deserve to have their lives plagued by noise pollution."
