Temporary partial car park closure in Llangollen

Mill Street car park in Llangollen will be partially closed for a 5 month period to provide a site compound for contractors to undertake construction work for the Council’s Four Great Highways project.

The Levelling Up funded project aims to enhance the landscape and improve accessibility, interpretation and signage in Llangollen.

Last month, the Council were pleased to announce that OBR Construction Ltd., who also recently completed work for another Levelling Up funded project at Wenffrwd Nature Reserve, had been appointed to complete the works.

A section of the Mill Street car park will be closed to facilitate the contractor’s site compound once the work commences on the 5 February and will remain so until the end of June 2024.

The public will still be able to access a section of the car park during this period as some parking spaces will still be available for use throughout the works. Disabled parking will also be available at the car park during this time.

OBR Construction will endeavour to scale down the compound as the scheme progresses towards completion to relieve more spaces where possible.

Residents and visitors wishing to use the car park during this period are advised that heavy plant vehicles will be entering and exiting the car park throughout the day between the hours of 8am and 5.30pm. Pedestrian routes within or accessing the car park will also be kept clear at all times and, in instances where this may not be possible, alternative pedestrian routes will be provided.

While car parking at Mill Street will still be possible during the construction period, in the event that the car park is full, alternative car parking facilities are available nearby at:

• East Street, Llangollen, LL20 8PW
• Market Street, Llangollen, LL20 8RB
• Llangollen Pavilion, Llangollen, LL20 8SW

The Four Great Highways project is part of investment by the UK Government’s Levelling Up Fund that was secured through a joint application between Denbighshire County Council and Wrexham County Borough Council for the Clwyd South Constituency. The application was supported by Simon Baynes MP. £3.8 million was allocated to Denbighshire to invest in the communities of Llangollen, Llantysilio, Corwen and surrounding areas.
