Bydd ffordd newydd yn cael ei hadeiladu i bentre Y Rhiw ym Mhen Ll?n wedi i drigolion frwydro am flynyddoedd i'w chael.
Mae'n bedair blynedd ers i dirlithriad yno gau'r briffordd i'r pentref gan olygu 10 milltir o daith ychwanegol i'r trigolion lleol.
Gwrthwynebodd un o drigolion yr ardal i lwybr y ffordd newydd yn gynharach eleni, ac ar un adeg doedd hi ddim yn ymddangos y byddai'r gwaith yn cael ei gwblhau tan 2007.
Cadarnhaodd Llywodraeth y Cynulliad ddydd Gwener bod y ffordd yn mynd i gael ei hadeiladu ac mae disgwyl i'r gwaith gymryd 18 mis.
"Rydyn ni wedi derbyn datganiad gwybodaeth sydd yn dweud bod adran priffyrdd y cynulliad yn cytuno â'r arolygydd ac mae'r arolygydd wedi dweud ei fod yn hapus bod y cynllun yn un priodol i fynd yn ei flaen," dywedodd AC dros yr ardal, Alun Ffred Jones.

The long wait for the residents of Rhiw to get their new road may at long last be drawing to an end. The assembly anounced that the work would be starting soon and is expected to be completed within 18 months.
This was anounced following calls by local AM Alun Ffred Jones asked for the Assembly to publish it's findings following the public enquiery instigated by the objections of a small minority of local objectors.
The new road saga has been drawn out over 4 years since the landslide that closed the road occured. This resulted in extended road journeys for Rhiw residents and in the community becoming more isolated.
One other possible casualty of the road closure is the iminent removal of the public phone box near Neigwl -
Not that this may be the only reason why this public phone has not been used enough to make it economicaly viable, but since the road closure, this phone box was located on a cul-de-sac.
