Objectionable Traffic Proposal

Cardiff Council Dragon logo

It has come to our attention that Cardiff Council are proposing to extend the weight restrictions which currently apply on Heol Isaf and part of Ty Nant Rd to the whole of Ty Nant Road. The specific proposal (Traffic Regulation Order C2508), can be viewed by following this link.

The proposal moves the starting point of the weight restriction to Ynys Bridge, which may well allow vehicles leaving the quarry to turn right legally and drive through Radyr & Morganstown – passing two schools and the health centre.  This will be extremely dangerous for school children and the elderly.  Currently, the quarry entrance is outside the restricted area so their heavy vehicles are not allowed not enter into it. With the new proposal they will be inside it there is nothing to stop them just turning right. This issue is not covered in the proposal.

We would like as many people as possible to object to this proposal by sending objections via email to roadtrafficorderobjections@cardiff.gov.uk .

Please note the closing date for objections is midnight on 21st February.
