CITY AND COUNTY OF
SWANSEAPUBLIC CONSULTATION
EXERCISE
September 28th-30th 2010
LAND SOUTH OF THE
A48 PONTARDDULAIS
A draft Development Assessment is being prepared by the
City and County of Swansea which considers the potential
for further development opportunities on land south
of the A48 and the wider context of the regeneration of
Pontarddulais.
The aim of this exhibition is to involve local residents,
traders, businesses, stakeholders, and statutory
organisations to assist in clarifying
What the issues are for the area
Constraints on development
Public views on the future regeneration and infrastructure
needs of the area.
Testing of public opinion is an important first step in the
evaluation process.The responses will contribute to the
preparation of a regeneration and infrastructure strategy for
Pontarddulais.
Mae Asesiad Datblygu drafft yn cael ei baratoi gan Ddinas
a Sir Abertawe syn ystyried y potensial ar gyfer cyfleodd
datblygu pellach ar dir ir de or A48 a chyd-destun ehangach
adfywio Pontarddulais.
Nod yr arddangosfa hon yw cynnwys trigolion lleol,
masnachwyr, busnesau, rhanddeiliaid a sefydliadau statudol
er mwyn helpu i egluro
Beth ywr materion ar gyfer yr ardal
Cyfyngiadau ar y datblygiad
Barn y cyhoedd am ddyfodol anghenion adfywio ac
isadeiledd yr ardal.
Mae profi barn y cyhoedd yn gam cyntaf pwysig yn y
broses werthuso. Bydd yr ymatebion yn cyfrannu at baratoi
strategaeth adfywio ac isadeiledd ar gyfer Pontarddulais.

Datblygu yn y Dyfodol
a Pholisi Cynllunio
The current statutory planning policies for Pontarddulais
as set out in the Swansea Unitary Development Plan (UDP)which was adopted by the City and County of Swansea in
2008.
Beyond the clearly defined built up area of Pontarddulais
there is
Open countryside (covered by policies EV20, EV21, EV22),
Land allocated for recreational use (policy HC23 and
EV24) at Coebach Park
Sensitive estuarine environment associated with the River
Loughor flood plain.
Current Unitary Development Plan policies seek to protect
these areas from further development.
Housing allocations are identified under policy HC1, and
Policy EC5 identifies the shopping core.
These policy references are shown on the plan below:
Maer polisiau statudol presennol ar gyfer Pontarddulais yn
cael eu cyflwyno yng Nghynllun Datblygu Unedol Abertawe(CDU) a fabwysiadwyd gan Ddinas a Sir Abertawe yn 2008.
Y tu hwnt i ardal adeiledig Pontarddulais mae
Ardal cefn gwlad agored (o dan bolisiau EV20, EV21, EV22),
Tir a ddyrennir at ddefnydd hamdden (polisi HC23 a EV24)
ym Mharc Coedbach.
Amgylchedd morydol sensitif syn gysylltiedig
gorlifdiroedd Afon Casllwchwr.
Mae polisiau Cynllun Datblygu Unedol presennol yn ceisio
diogelur meysydd hyn rhag datblygu pellach.
Nodir dyraniadau tai o dan bolisi HC1 ac mae polisi EC5 yn
nodir craidd siopa.
Dangosir y cyfeiriadau polisi yma ar y cynllun isod:

Key issues affecting
future regeneration
and development
An initial assessment of physical and environmental
characteristics and the policy framework for the areasuggests that development opportunities south of the A48
will be very limited.
The proximity of the River Loughor flood plain and
associated flood risk issues will prevent development west
of the dismantled railway line.
Two high pressure gas mains south of the A48 present
a significant physical constraint with associated cost
implications on any future road infrastructure and future
development.
Mae asesiad cychwynnol o nodweddion ffisegol ac
amgylcheddol a fframwaith y polisi ar gyfer yr ardal ynawgrymu y bydd cyfleoedd datblygu ir de or A48 yn
gyfyngedig iawn.
Bydd agosrwydd gorlifdiroedd Afon Casllwchwr a materion
peryglon llifogydd cysylltiedig yn atal datblygu ir gorllewin
or hen reilffordd.
Mae dwy bibell nwy gwasgedd uchel ir de or A48 yn
gyfyngiad corfforol sylweddol gyda goblygiadau costau
cysylltiol ar unrhyw isadeiledd y ffordd a datblygu yn y
dyfodol.

Town Centre
Regeneration - what
are the issues?
The town centre is currently affected by a number of issues
which are key considerations in evaluating the futureregeneration potential of areas in and adjacent to the town
centre and in terms of highway infrastructure needs.
Some of the main issues are:
It is a retail centre which is not delivering its full potential,
providing primarily a local top up shopping role, with
substantial leakage of main shopping activity to other
retail centres.
The one way system is subject to high traffic volumes
and the movement of heavy vehicles. It suffers
consequently from traffic congestion with an associated
impact on the shopping environment.
Lack of parking
Vacant retail units and gaps in the commercial frontage.
Ar hyn o bryd, effeithir ar ganol y dref gan cynifer o brif
faterian brif fater, ac maer materion hyn yn ystyriaethauallweddol wrth werthuso potensial adfywio ardaloedd yng
nghanol y dref a gerllaw canol y dref yn y dyfodol ac o ran
anghenion isadeiledd y briffordd. Dyma rai or prif faterion:
Maen ganolfan fanwerthu nad ywn cyflawni ei photensial
llawn, gan ddarparun bennaf rl siopa ychwanegol,
gydar prif weithgareddau siopan treiglo i ganolfannau
masnachu eraill.
Mae llif uchel o draffig a symudiad cerbydau trwm ar y
system unffordd. Maen dioddef felly o dagfeydd traffig
gydag effaith gysylltiedig ar yr amgylchedd siopa.
Diffyg mannau parcio
Unedau manwerthu gwag a bylchau yn y ffryntiadau
masnachol.
Adfywio canol y dref -
beth ywr materion?
There is considered to be potential for further environmental
enhancement of the centre, incorporating the work
previously implemented and also for upgrading the fabric of
retail frontages.
What are your views?
Ystyrir bod potensial i wella amgylchedd canol y dref
ymhellach, gan gynnwys gwaith a roddwyd ar waith yn
flaenorol a hefyd ar gyfer diweddaru ffryntiadau manwerthu.

Does Pontarddulais
need a bypass?
The bypass scheme was originally highlighted in the 1990
Halcrow Fox report as a potential mechanism for accessingthe development land south of the town centre. However the
bypass has no formal policy status or protection and many
changes have taken place since that time which need full
consideration as part of the Development Assessment.
Further technical studies would be needed to fully
understand the impacts and costs of the bypass scheme.
The plan below shows two potential locations for a bypass
route.
Amlygwyd y cynllun ffordd osgoi yn wreiddiol yn adroddiad
Halcrow Fox ym 1990 fel mecanwaith posib ar gyfer caelmynediad ir tir datblygu ir de o ganol y dref. Fodd bynnag,
nid oes gan y ffordd osgoi unrhyw statws bolisi ffurfiol nac
amddiffyniad ac mae sawl newid wedi digwydd ers yr amser
hwnnw y bydd angen eu hystyried yn llawn fel rhan or
Asesiad Datblygu.
Byddai angen astudiaethau technolegol pellach er mwyn
deall effeithiau a chostaur cynllun ffordd osgoi yn llawn.
Maer cynllun isod yn dangos dau leoliad posib ar gyfer
llwybr y ffordd osgoi.
A oes angen
ffordd osgoi ar
Bontarddulais?
