A Welsh council has issued an order to stop people parking on footpaths near a popular tourist destination in Neath. Neath Port Talbot's Environment Regeneration and Streetscene Services Cabinet met on Friday, June 2 to discuss a traffic order on the B4242 Pontneathvaughan Road and High Street, near the popular Waterfall Country in Glynneath.
The site, which is located on the edge of Bannau Brycheiniog National Park, was granted a share in £17.7 million worth of UK Government's Levelling Up funding earlier this year as part of an effort to establish Neath as a major heritage and environment-led visitor destination.
However, the natural beauty spot which plays host to thousands of tourists each year to visit the Pontneddfechan Waterfalls has also seen complaints from residents about regular parking on footways that restrict visibility and prevent people from using them.
