Millions set to be invested in transport schemes in Swansea
A brand new riverside walkway for pedestrians and cyclists is set to be developed as part of multi million transport investment in Swansea
The Tawe riverside plans are part of a multi-million pound transport funding package which will help create new transport routes, improve road safety, improve public transport links as well as boost infrastructure for electric vehicles and develop flood prevention schemes on roads that regularly suffer from isolated flooding.
£6.7million will be invested in Swansea in 2026/27 with further funding secured for the following two years. One of the main schemes to benefit from the investment will be the development of a brand new Tawe Riverside Path and will feature a purpose-built walking and cycling route along a mile long section of the riverside between the city centre and the Swansea.com Stadium.
Further funding for walking and cycling routes will include the widening of the existing route between Dunvant and Gowerton. A new walking and cycling route between Loughor and Gowerton is also planned.
More rapid EV charging points are also set to be installed across parts of the city, increasing the overall EV charging infrastructure.
