Active Travel route between Waunfawr and IBERS Aberystwyth, Ceredigion – Phase 2 progress

Project Description:

Client – Ceredigion County Council

Project Overview

Work is moving ahead on the Waunfawr to IBERS active travel link scheme, with Phase 2 of the new shared use path now complete beside the TRA487 near Comins Coch.

Delivered by YGC and the North and Mid Wales Trunk Road Agent on behalf of the Welsh Government, in partnership with Ceredigion County Council, this phase has also included changes to Dorglwyd Junction to support the wider scheme and improve safety for turning traffic.

The junction has now been reconfigured, and drivers are being asked to take care and watch for cyclists and pedestrians crossing in the area.

The next phase is also set to move forward after Ceredigion County Council secured further Welsh Government grant funding. A local contractor has been appointed, with Phase 3 currently scheduled to start in July 2026.

Phase 3 will complete the shared use path along the C1010 between Splash Cottages and the TRA487 junction. It will also include a new culvert and bridge over the Afon Peithyll near Pwll Crwn car park, helping to tackle recent flooding problems in the area.
