A Welsh Government minister has turned down an invite to visit Llandrindod Wells’ controversial active travel scheme because he ‘does not want to see what a mess has been created’ a Llandrindod Wells councillor said

“In light of this, I do not believe a visit to the town would be beneficial at this time,” he said.
They have repeatedly said that in several places along the route larger vehicles have limited space to pass safely and are regularly seen mounting the pavement onto the Active Travel footpath to avoid collisions with other vehicles.
Llandrindod Wells Mayor Councillor Steve Deeks-D’Silva said; “I live adjacent to the next phase of the scheme, it passes my door, and we have not heard a word from the design team.
It is rather disappointing.”Active Travel Assistant Travel Officer David Allday said the scheme meets all required standards and the path fully complies with the Active Travel Design Guide.
Cllr Owen expressed concern about the lack of Active Travel provision from Llandrindod Wells to Crossgates.
