  • Tredegar House CR
    A Cycle Ride from Tredegar House Country Park Club Site This circular route has been suggested by Sustrans’ Volunteer Rangers. Sustrans is the UK’s leading sustainable transport charity and is responsible for the development of the 12,000 miles of National Cycle Network. We hope you will enjoy exploring the local area near the Site and make the most of your stay at Tredegar House Country Park. This route takes in parts of two National Routes of the National Cycle Network. Route 4 runs from London to the west coast of Wales and Route 47 starts at Newport and finishes at Fishguard, providing the inland alternatives for the Celtic Trail Cycle route. The ride starts from Tredegar House main car park and takes in Newport, the River Usk, Newport Castle and the Monmouthshire & Brecon Canal. (An optional detour on Route 49 runs north to Pontypool, connecting with Route 492 to the World Heritage Site at Blaenavon.) The Route 1 Starting from the Club Site, follow the National Cycle Network signs via the main car park of Tredegar House to the black and white barriers. Continue on Route 4 of the NCN into the city of Newport around its southern edge. 2 Turn left on to National Route 47 at the new bridge across the River Usk, on the site of the entrance lock of the old town dock. 3 Continue past the remains of Newport Castle. 4 Continue behind Sainsbury’s store, alongside the River Usk. 5 Turn left after riding beside the river, passing under and over the ‘Old Rising Sun’ intersection.

    Foreword Foreword As Executive Board Member for Regeneration and Leisure, I am pleased to present the Carmarthenshire County Council Local Development Plan (LDP) as adopted by the County Council on December 10 2014. Whilst taking account of national plans, policies and programmes, the Carmarthenshire LDP provides a locally distinctive means of shaping the future use of land within our County. As such, the Plan takes account of our County’s unique characteristics and qualities and it gives me pleasure to see the emphasis placed on sustainable development as a central principle. I am also pleased to note the close working relationship that the Plan demonstrates with the Integrated Community Strategy. In noting that the LDP is one of only two plans that the Authority is statutorily obliged to produce, I consider that this Plan provides a robust mechanism for delivering the Council’s ambitions over the coming years. I particularly welcome the Plan’s recognition of the importance of promoting a sustainable distribution of growth and regeneration within the context of approaches in regional working. The LDP considers a wide range of issues and presents a vision for the future of the County. The Plan’s Strategy will help realise this vision by identifying the level and distribution of growth and development needed in accordance with the diverse character of the County’s communities. The Plan will deliver its Strategy via the implementation of a range of policies and land use allocations, including provision for new homes and employment over the plan period. I also note that the Sustainability Appraisal (SA) and Habitats Regulations Assessment (HRA) have both provided important roles within the Plan making process and that all regulatory requirements have been adhered to.
