What discussions has the Welsh Government had with Bridgend County Borough Council about upgrading the junction between Simonston Road and Coychurch Road?

Answered by Deputy Minister for Climate Change | Answered on 16/02/2022

The junction is part of the local road network and therefore the responsibility of the local authority. 

In 2017/18 the local authority received funding for an active travel scheme on Coychurch Road and in 2018-19 received funding for surveys / design for a Heol Simonston/Coychurch Road Junction Improvement Scheme.  We have not received further applications from the local authority in relation to the junction.
