Improving active travel in Neath Port Talbot
Neath Port Talbot County Council is working with Sustrans Cymru as part of Welsh Government’s public consultation to create an Active Travel Network Map for Neath Port Talbot. This will be the blueprint that Neath Port Talbot will use for deciding where improvements to walking and cycling should be made. Welsh Government guidance states that routes to schools must be a key part of these networks.
Pupils can share their thoughts on active travel infrastructure in your local area by using the easy online mapping tool. https://neathporttalbot.commonplace.is/
