Pontarddulais is a ward located in the northern part of the city and county of Swansea. It encompasses the town of Pontarddulais itself, situated at the confluence of the River Loughor and the smaller River Llan. The area is characterised by residential neighbourhoods, local shopping streets, and surrounding green spaces that include playing fields and pockets of woodland. Its position provides a transition between the urban areas to the south and the more rural landscapes of Carmarthenshire to the north.

A notable local feature is the Grade II listed Pontarddulais Aqueduct, which carries the Swansea Canal over the River Loughor. The ward contains several primary schools and community facilities, serving its local population.
