The Cardiff Bay peninsula boardwalk has been closed off using fencing which has become an eyesore<\/strong>.

“The alternative route is a lot less desirable and in some places quite dangerous. You get squashed onto the road with cars or you’re sharing a narrow, dark pavement with pedestrians which can introduce conflict.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cWe have quite a few members who live in Grangetown and that\u2019s the start of their route when they go to places on their bikes. There\u2019s been a lot of grumblings about the fact that it has been closed,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\nCyclists now have to use an alternative route through the International Sports Village<\/strong>. Credit: Rachel Fergusson.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\nRuth Squire, a lecturer at Cardiff University, uses the route twice a week to commute from Penarth. Having been knocked off her bike before, she is keen to stay off roads where she can, and says the current route feels less safe. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cIf they want us to get on our bikes and be healthy, they need to create the space for us to do it,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Margaret Pearson, 70, who lives in Prospect Place, says she has almost been knocked over several times by cyclists riding on the pavements while she walks back from doing her shopping at Morrisons. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cSometimes they just whizz past you on the pavement. It\u2019s scary, especially for older people,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Mr Allsobrook is keen to support the council’s boardwalk plans but hopes whatever is put in place will be properly maintained and cyclist-friendly. He would like to see plans go further, improving the Cardiff Bay Trail by fully joining up the sections of the waterfront path around the peninsula.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cI hope it doesn\u2019t stop there and they think about joining up the whole circular route around the bay properly and turning it into something that has a bit of a higher profile, so people will come from further away to use it as a circular walk or cycle ride taking in the bay and Penarth and the marina and the barrage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“They are very attractive parts of Cardiff, but if the route isn\u2019t attractive for people to use then they\u2019re not going to use it.\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Suzanne Rogers, another resident from Penarth, agrees that upgrading the route in this way would boost active travel in the city. She says she has been \u201cdisgusted\u201d by the current state of the path and says the council \u201chave to look at the whole thing\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThe Bay should be for everyone. It feels like there\u2019s less and less of the Bay I can walk. It\u2019s getting chipped away. They could have made a beautiful walk. If you build a place where people can walk, people will walk. One pound spent on that is a pound well spent.\u201d she said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Cyclist Timothy Brignall says he would \u201cdefinitely\u201d use the path around the site if it was built. Currently, he avoids cycling in that particular part of the city because he knows it is closed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Welsh Government\u2019s transport strategy includes a target for 39% of all journeys to be made via public transport, walking or cycling by 2030, and 45% of all journeys by 2040.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
What are the council\u2019s plans?<\/h4>\n\n\n\n Cardiff council’s Cabinet has approved the following work:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\nRemove the boardwalk along the length in its ownership<\/li>\n\n\n\n Remove the heras fencing and installation of more permanent fencing to isolate the water’s edge.<\/li>\n\n\n\n Re-open a temporary path along the waterfront<\/li>\n\n\n\n Engage with residents and the owners of privately-owned sections of the boardwalk (also currently closed to the public) with a view to developing a permanent long-term solution for the entire boardwalk”<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\nA spokesperson said: \u201cIn the longer-term, the proposal for the areas under council ownership is to create a land-side promenade along the waterfront. This would form part of wider work to develop currently vacant land at the International Sports Village by the council’s appointed developers Orion.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The plans would see the balustrade, which is in good condition, retained and repositioned on the revetment wall as part of the new inland path.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Cabinet confirmed it would identify a date in the coming weeks to meet residents, address their concerns and agree a way forward on the areas of boardwalk that are not in private ownership.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The council has not published a timescale for the reopening of the temporary path or the creation of the land-side promenade.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
