Great news 🤞😀

Tonight we attended a consultation at the Guildhall with Curve Studio to look at the work that will take place providing a bmx track at Coed Gwilym Park.

This is part of a wider city deal which we have agreed to support with our budgets.

Work is anticipated to start in May this year. There will be a community consultation event at the park which we will advertise in due course.

This park has seen some significant investment ranging from tennis court upgrades, car park extension, a new pavilion and a path around the field. These have been made possible by the Friends of Coed Gwilym Park, Clwb Pel Droed Clydach, The Lawn Tennis Association, Swansea council and us as the County Councillors.

More is planned such as a zip wire and accessible play equipment (work has already started on this).

We have also nearly finalised the prep work to resurface the lane from the main gate to the changing room.

This park is a real jewel in Clydach's crown and it’s great to see it going from stregnth to stregnth.

Hidden away in the Swansea Valley under a rocky hillside, you'll find the UK's deepest cave and its third longest. Ogof Ffynnon Ddu is said to be 304 metres deep - three times the height of Big Ben. Its walls are jet black and there are 37 miles of passage. But don't go looking for it, as it's locked and not open to the public! 😮
