In recent years, there have been significant changes to how people use Bridgend town centre. These changes have been shaped by several factors, including the relocation of major stores to out-of-town retail parks, the growth of online shopping, the rise in remote services such as online banking, the shift towards home working, and challenges related to accessibility.
To address these evolving challenges, Bridgend County Borough Council is seeking your feedback on a range of potential improvements to enhance access to Bridgend town centre.
The proposed changes are shown in the overview map below and are summarised as follow:
Extending loading and unloading hours throughout the town centre’s pedestrianised areas to better support businesses and their customers.
Allowing cycling in pedestrianised areas with the provision of enhanced cycle parking facilities.
Increasing disabled parking opportunities by converting underutilised areas on Derwen Road.
These proposed changes are part of an initial phase aimed at improving the town centre’s viability and resilience. We will closely monitor the impact and may consider further changes at a later date.
We recognise that some stakeholders favour allowing all traffic to use Queen Street, Dunraven Place, and Market Street. Although this is not included in the current proposal, we welcome all views via the survey, and your feedback will form an important part of our engagement analysis. This will help determine whether further investigation is needed for a potential follow-up phase.
You can choose to answer all sections of this questionnaire or just focus on the areas that matter most to you. Depending on which sections you choose to answer, the survey will typically take between 3 and 10 minutes to complete.
Your feedback in this survey is extremely valuable to help us shape a balanced plan that is safe, effective, and deliverable.
