Neath Port Yalbot Council says it is looking for views on a new ‘masterplan’ for Active Travel in Neath Town Centre.
The council says the proposals aim to make local routes safer, more accessible, and sustainable, as part of the its commitment to improving health, wellbeing, and the environment, while reducing congestion.
Three routes are being proposed for improvement.
Route one covers Neath Abbey Road, Cadoxton Road and Bridge Street.
A second route goes from Cadoxton Road, the B4434, Riverside Road and Prince of Wales Drive.
The third route covers a section of Gnoll Park Road.
Possible improvements include small-scale enhancements like dropped kerbs and tactile paving, as well as bolder changes like creating shared-use paths and introducing new safe crossing facilities for all users.

The council say the project is still in its early stages, and no decisions have been made yet. The council added that it is keen to hear the public’s views and will use feedback from residents to review and refine the potential ideas presented.
