Consultation - Safe Routes in the Community Hope

Flintshire County Council has been successful in obtaining funding from the Welsh Government to help address road safety concerns and congestion for the surrounding areas of Ysgol Estyn and Castell Alun High School, for the benefit of the local residents and for children attending both schools.

Why are safety improvements required here?
Within recent years, we have heard many concerns about the speed of traffic and hazardous parking in the vicinity of both schools. Walking and cycling is a great way to increase your level of physical activity and we also want to provide a safer and more attractive environment for people to do this.

Improvement Works
In order to mitigate the various hazards along the route and in an attempt to improve the viability of Active and Sustainable modes of transport, the following measures have been identified;

  • A550 Wrexham Road

  • Castell Alun High School – Safety Improvement Works

  • Ysgol Estyn Primary School – Safety Improvement Works

  • Kiln Lane existing walking route

  • Kinnerton Lane

  • Extents of entire Route

More details and to provide feedback can be found on the to FCC website Hope A550 Scheme
