THE Llanharan bypass is a “priority” for RCT council, with the leader saying he is confident work will start in earnest once it gets planning permission and a contractor is appointed.

Councillor Andrew Morgan was responding to a question from Brynna and Llanharan councillor Janine Turner at Rhondda Cynon Taf full council on Wednesday, June 25, who said that the statement earlier this year that the Llanharan Sustainable Transport Corridor had been given the go-ahead following a redesign was very welcome news.

She asked the leader for an update on the progress made since then and to outline some of the key steps for the scheme to be delivered. Cllr Morgan said the scheme was a priority for the council and that there had been a lot of work going on in the background to take it forward. The council has allocated £5.05m in the capital programme towards the project.
