Transport works to start at Pen-y-ffordd Roundabout this week
Transport improvement works are due to begin at Pen-y-ffordd Roundabout on Tuesday 24 February, Flintshire County Council has announced.
The scheme includes widening existing footways, installing a new toucan crossing on the A550, and introducing a 40mph speed limit in the vicinity of the roundabout.
The works are designed to create safer routes for pedestrians travelling to and from Pen-y-ffordd railway station, and to improve links to surrounding residential areas, local facilities and public transport services.
The project is funded through the Welsh Government’s Active Travel Fund, managed by Transport for Wales.
Works are expected to last approximately six weeks.
During the first week, activities will be carried out off the highway and will not require traffic management.
From week two onwards, traffic management measures will be put in place to ensure the safety of the public and the workforce.
Councillor Glyn Banks, Cabinet Member for Waste and Transportation at Flintshire County Council, said: “The project reflects the Council’s ongoing commitment to delivering safer, more sustainable travel options and promoting walking and cycling and public transport use within local communities.
“Residents are thanked in advance for their patience and cooperation while these important improvements are undertaken.”
