We want to know what you think of our plans for changes to the highway on Pendwyallt Road in Coryton.
The proposals involve the Pantmawr Road and Lon-Y-Celyn junction area, near the Hollybush Inn.
These would introduce:
- a tabled tabled parallel crossing on Pendwyallytt Road that spans across Pantmawr Road and towards the Hollybush Inn, and
- a footway improvements to tighten junctions and widen the footway near the bus layby.

Why we are proposing improvements
We are proposing improvements to help create a safer environment for everyone and support active travel.
The proposals would:
- encourage lower vehicle speeds,
- improve pedestrian crossing facilities, particularly for children travelling to and from Coryton Primary School, and
- improve cycle access, in line with the cycle lane and footpath that run towards Velindre Hospital.
Funding
We are seeking funding for these proposals from the Welsh Government Active Travel Fund.
Subject to funding, we plan to deliver the scheme during the 2026 to 2027 financial year.

We understand that you may have suggestions for other safety improvements along this route. We unfortunately cannot make any significant changes to these proposals for funding reasons. We will keep a record of any other suggestions.
Although we cannot respond individually, we will also add all raised issues to our consultation report. This will be available online or by request in future, after we close the consultation and review feedback.
More information about traffic measures
Find out what each term means:
Zebra crossing
These are suitable for sites with medium levels of pedestrian demand and vehicle flow, where a puffin crossing would not be suitable.
This type of crossing can benefit pedestrians as there is no minimum waiting time for the right to cross. Zebra crossings can be combined with build-outs.
These can:
- improve visibility for drivers and pedestrians,
- reduce crossing distances, and
- help pedestrians show that they are planning on crossing a road.
Tabled zebra crossing
This is where a zebra crossing includes a speed table, or is sited at a tabled junction (either on its own or as part of wider traffic calming).
