What is happening?
GORCHYMYN CYNGOR BWRDEISTREF SIROL PEN-Y-BONT AR OGWR (CAU LLWYBR TROED DROS DRO) (LLWYBR TROED 3 MERTHYR MAWR) 2024
RHODDIR HYSBYSIAD TRWY HYN fod y Cyngor fel yr Awdurdod Priffyrdd ar gyfer Merthyr Mawr, wrth arfer ei bwerau dan Adran 14(1) Deddf Rheoleiddio Traffig Ffyrdd 1984 (fel y’i diwygiwyd), wedi creu Gorchymyn a fydd yn cau dros dro y llwybrau troed a nodir yn yr atodlen isod. Mae’r Gorchymyn er budd diogelwch y cyhoedd oherwydd tywydd garw dros y misoedd diwethaf sydd wedi erydu wyneb Llwybr Troed 3 Merthyr Mawr a’i ysgubo i ffwrdd gan achosi ffos ddofn i ymddangos yn y llwybr troed sy’n fygythiad i ddiogelwch aelodau’r cyhoedd, yn enwedig o ran perygl baglu a’r llethrau naill ochr yn cwympo i mewn. Mae hyn yn golygu ei bod yn anniogel i’r cyhoedd ei ddefnyddio ac mae angen gorchymyn dros dro i ddiogelu’r cyhoedd fel y gellir cynnal arolwg o’r difrod a’r atgyweiriadau. Daw’r Gorchymyn i rym ar 24/06/2024 a bydd yn parhau mewn grym am uchafswm o 18 mis neu nes y bydd y gwaith wedi’i gwblhau, p’un bynnag sydd gyntaf. Atodlen - Llwybr troed 3 Merthyr Mawr o’r gyffordd â Llwybr Troed 21 Porthcawl ac i gyfeiriad cyffredinol y de-ddwyrain ac yna tua’r de de-orllewin am oddeutu 162 metr. Nid oes llwybr addas arall ar gael. Fodd bynnag, bydd y cyfyngiad yn berthnasol dim ond ar adegau ac i’r graddau a ddangosir o bryd i’w gilydd ar arwyddion traffig a osodir gan Reoliadau a Chyfarwyddiadau Cyffredinol Arwyddion Traffig 2016.

BRIDGEND COUNTY BOROUGH COUNCIL (TEMPORARY FOOTPATH CLOSURE) (FOOTPATH 3 MERTHYR MAWR) ORDER 2024
NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that the Council as the Highway Authority for Merthyr Mawr in exercise of its powers under Section 14(1) of the Road Traffic Regulation Act 1984 (as amended) has made an Order which temporarily closes the footpaths set out in the schedule below. The Order is in the interest of public safety due to severe weather over the past few months the surface of Footpath 3 Merthyr Mawr has eroded and washed away causing a deep trench to appear in the footpath which poses a threat to the safety of members of the public particularly from the banks either side collapsing and tripping hazards. This has meant that it is unsafe for the public to use and a temporary order is needed to protect the public so that a survey of the damage and repairs can be undertaken. The Order will come into force on the 24/06/2024 and will continue in force for a maximum period of six months or until the works are completed whichever is the sooner. Schedule - Footpath 3 Merthyr Mawr from its junction with Footpath 21 Porthcawl and proceeding in a generally south easterly and then south south-westerly direction for approximately 162 meters. There is no suitable alternative route available. The restriction shall however only apply at such time and to such extent as shall from time to time be indicated by traffic signs prescribed by The Traffic Signs Regulations and General Directions 2016.
