Janet Finch-Saunders MS has voiced serious concerns over Conwy County Borough Council’s proposed parking and traffic restrictions across Llandudno and Craig-y-Don, warning that the plans could have a significant impact on residents, visitors and local businesses.
The proposals include extensive new double yellow lines, overnight motorhome parking restrictions, changes to loading arrangements and the introduction of a one-way system on Trinity Avenue. The plans are currently out for public consultation until 28 August.
Janet Finch-Saunders, Senedd Member for Bangor Conwy Môn said:
“I am extremely concerned by the scale of these proposed restrictions and understand why many residents and businesses are worried about the potential impact they could have on everyday life in Llandudno.
While I recognise the need to improve road safety where there is clear evidence, any changes must be proportionate and properly justified. Measures of this scale risk creating unnecessary difficulties for residents, affecting local businesses and making it harder for people to access the town.
I would encourage everyone affected to take part in the public consultation and ensure their views are heard before any final decisions are made. It is vital that the Council listens carefully to local people and is prepared to reconsider any proposals that do not have community support.”
