Proposed new walking, wheeling and cycling route
Transport for Wales, the Welsh Government’s Strategic Road Network team, Torfaen County Borough Council and Monmouthshire County Council are working together to provide a new safe and accessible route that can be used by everyone in the community to walk, wheel or cycle to destinations between Pontypool in Torfaen through to Usk in Monmouthshire.
TfW wants to hear from residents and visitors to the area about their views of the proposed design and route so that it meets the needs of everybody wanting to use it, as far as possible.
The survey will be closed on 27 October 2025. haveyoursay.tfw.wales/pontypool-usk
