Proposals to designate a section of the B4329 at Prendergast, Haverfordwest, as one-way have been developed following concerns from residents about road safety, parking and congestion.

Pembrokeshire County Council’s Transport Strategy Team is now keen to hear from members of the public, commuters and local businesses on the proposals.

The plans aim to effectively manage the flow of traffic between the Cardigan Road junction and Bridgend Square Roundabout and make improvements to the safety of school children and local community, as well as improving parking issues.

The proposed one-way system will start at the roundabout and run for around 535 metres up to a new mini-roundabout.

Other aspects to the proposals include a 500 metre Shared Use Path, redistributing parking bays and traffic management measures along the route and modifications at Cardigan Road and Hall Park.

Drop-in sessions will be held at Pembrokeshire Archives tomorrow (10th September), with those interested encouraged to come along between 10am-12pm; 1pm-4pm and 6.30pm and 8pm.

An online survey will also go live on 10th September and will be open for feedback until 1st October.

Cabinet Member for Residents’ Services Cllr Rhys Sinnett said: “The views of the community and regular users of this road are vital to developing these proposals that aim to alleviate concerns local residents have been raising about road safety, on-street parking and congestion in the area.

“A preferred option will not be finalised until we have the feedback from the local community so I would urge everyone to make sure they have their say either in person at the drop-in sessions or online.”
