Purpose of Document There is a significant problem in Monmouth regarding traffic, especially pedestrians and cycle traffic, around the existing crossing of the River Wye at the junction of the A40, A466 and A4136. We believe that these problems are serious and warrant action by the various authorities who are responsible for traffic movement in Monmouth; including the Welsh Government, Monmouthshire County Council and Monmouth Town Council. Plate 1 - Artists impression of one potential solution for Pedestrians and Cycles crossing the Wye The current crossing creates a dangerous environment for all pedestrians and cyclists plus anyone with mobility restrictions including wheelchair and mobility scooter users, many of whom avoid the current crossing due to the restrictions created by the existing footpaths and the dangers created by vehicles on the bridge.
