About

Cwmbran is a town built as a new development after the Second World War. Its layout is centred around a large pedestrianised shopping centre, one of the first of its kind in the UK, which remains a focal point for the town. The area is characterised by its network of cycle paths and green corridors that weave through residential neighbourhoods.

The landscape is shaped by the surrounding valleys of the Afon Llwyd river. Cwmbran Boating Lake and the nearby ancient woodland of Cwmbran Woods provide accessible green space. The town's design incorporates numerous underpasses and footbridges to separate vehicles from pedestrians and cyclists.
