Caerphilly council proposes parking restrictions in Crumlin
The proposal aims to ban loading and waiting between 7am and 9.30am and between 4pm and 6.30pm on a specific section of the road.
The restrictions would apply to the southern side of Hafod-yr-ynys Road, starting approximately 25 metres east of the eastern boundary of the property known as '5 t/ves' house and continuing eastwards for about 45 metres.
The council says this is to help manage traffic flow during peak hours.
The proposal is part of an amendment to the existing 2019 parking consolidation order, which already governs waiting and loading restrictions as well as on-street parking rules.
The proposed changes are being made under the Road Traffic Regulation Act 1984 and the Traffic Management Act 2004, following discussions with the Chief Officer of Police.
Residents and other interested parties can review the draft order, maps of the affected area, and the reasons behind the proposal on the council's website, caerphilly.gov.uk/TrafficRegulationsOrders.
These documents can also be inspected in person by appointment at the council's legal services office at Penallta House, Tredomen Park, Ystrad Mynach during regular office hours.
The inspection period will run until July 10.
Those who wish to object to the proposed changes can do so by emailing trafficorder@caerphilly.gov.uk.
All objections must include the grounds on which they are being made and be submitted by July 10.
The council has stated that any objections received may be disclosed in accordance with the Freedom of Information Act.
The plans have been proposed by Clive Campbell, acting director for infrastructure and waste.
The council has released the information to allow residents the chance to provide feedback on the proposed changes.
The feedback period will run until July 10.
For more information, residents can contact the traffic management section at 01443 864307 or email coopeem@caerphilly.gov.uk.

Caerphilly Residents Give their Vision for Town's Future
Residents have begun sharing their vision for a key future target for regeneration in Caerphilly town centre. The Caerphilly Town 2035 team are running a series of summer engagement activities seeking the thoughts, experiences, and ideas for the future of the upper Cardiff Road area of Caerphilly, known as the 'Top of Town', running from the train station to the Twyn. The Festival of Ideas will see a series of events happen throughout the town across the coming weeks, where people of all ages and backgrounds will be encouraged to share their thoughts to inform future development of the area, culminating in a public finale on September 6. The Festival of Ideas began in early August with an event organised in partnership with Valley Daffodils, a charity for individuals with all disabilities and additional learning needs and their families. As the placemaking plan progresses, ensuring that Caerphilly truly serves the needs of the community who live, work, and visit the town is a key priority. The Festival of Ideas is designed to achieve targeted engagement with key communities from hard-to-reach groups to young people and families. The Festival of Ideas will reach its finale on September 6 with a public event in Y Banc and Windsor and Stockland Square. Residents and visitors are invited to come and have their say on the future of Caerphilly Town through a series of activities and interactive workshops. Ceri, founder and chairperson of Valley Daffodils, said: 'It's really encouraging – and important – to see inclusivity built into the plans for Caerphilly Town 2035. 'Census data indicates that Caerphilly has one of the highest proportions of disabled adults in Wales. This makes it even more important that this demographic is consulted and included in any plans that will affect the day-to-day of all who live in, work in, and visit Caerphilly. 'Valley Daffodils have been really grateful to be involved at various stages of the community engagement work done behind the scenes of the placemaking plan, and we're really excited to see how the town evolves as a result of the Festival of Ideas.' A Caerphilly County Borough Council spokesperson said: 'The Caerphilly Town 2035 plan has been bringing ambitious revitalisation to make Caerphilly the very best place to live, work, and visit it possibly can. 'With the opening of the container market Ffos Caerffili and the ongoing regeneration of Caerphilly Castle, we are already delivering much-needed change informed by the needs and wants of residents. 'To build on our success further, we are once again asking for your input to create the Caerphilly you want to see.'
