Council in race to secure funding for Porthcawl bus terminus to connect with the south Wales metro

A Welsh council has been left with less than eight weeks to spend money on a town's multi-million pound transport project, or risk losing the cash altogether.

Bridgend County Borough Council secured more than £3million of funding for the Porthcawl Metro Project in 2022 - a scheme that would improve transport links in the borough with a modern bus terminus along the Portway, Porthcawl, next to Salt Lake car park.

The proposed four-bay bus terminus was put forward as part of the Metro Plus programme which allocated each council £3m to implement a transport scheme as part of the capital region city deal to support the south Wales metro. See more on the plans for Porthcawl here.
