The project involves building two kilometres of new highway and two new road-over-rail bridges at Ystrad Fawr and Rallt.
The scheme got underway in January and completion is scheduled for spring next year. It is funded by Network Rail Wales in partnership with Welsh Government, who provided £3m of funding.

Welsh Government Economy Secretary, Ken Skates, said: "With £3 million funding from the Welsh Government, this will allow essential work to be carried out in Mid Wales to improve rail safety which is a key commitment of the Welsh Government. During this project we will work with our partners, Network Rail, to minimise disruption to services.”
Andy Thomas, route managing director for Network Rail Wales, said: "We are investing more than £100 million to improve level crossing safety across Britain as part of our Railway Upgrade Plan. The level crossing closures in Talerddig will help reduce risk, improve safety and support the local economy."
