Prestatyn High Street – Traffic Management Trial

The recent traffic management trial on Prestatyn High Street, which encouraged vehicles to travel down Nant Hall Road to Parc Prestatyn Retail Park has now ended.

Denbighshire County Council would like to thank everyone for their co-operation during the trial period, and to those who stopped to discuss their travelling habits.

Having listened to all the feedback received during the first consultation and the traffic management trial, the Council are now in the process of carrying out further modelling of the flow and direction of traffic, to ensure the delivery of a project that will enhance and regenerate Prestatyn.

This will focus on the lower section of the High Street, Bridge Road and Penisardre Road to determine if the congestion can be alleviated as part of the UK Government funded Prestatyn High Street Improvement Scheme. 

A further public consultation will take place between mid-September and late October to gather feedback about the initial designs, and we also invite people to share their views and concerns about the traffic around the High Street at the same time.

Councillor Jason McLellan, Leader and Lead Member for Economic Growth & Tackling Deprivation said:

“We would like to thank residents, visitors, and businesses for their co-operation and engagement throughout the recent traffic management trial on Prestatyn High Street.

“As a result of the trail we have received valuable feedback, which will be used as we move forward with further traffic modelling.

"Our focus remains on delivering a scheme that enhances accessibility, reduces congestion, and supports the long-term regeneration of the town centre.

"We look forward to hearing more from the community during the upcoming public consultation and encourage everyone to share their views”.

Further information about the initial designs and the public consultation will be made available soon.
