📢 **COMMUNITY COUNCIL UPDATE:
ST FAGANS HIGHWAYS & ROAD SAFETY**

On Friday 17th July 2026, the Community Council welcomed three Members of the Senedd (MSs) to St Fagans for a site visit and meeting focused on some of the key highways, transport and road safety issues affecting our ward.

This visit was an important opportunity for us to show the issues first-hand, meet with local residents and make sure our community’s concerns are being heard at both Cardiff Council and Senedd level.

🚗 **MUSEUM PARKING, TRAFFIC & PUBLIC TRANSPORT**

We raised our ongoing concerns about traffic congestion around St Fagans National Museum of History, particularly during busy periods when visitor numbers increase pressure on our narrow village roads.

We also highlighted the problems caused by overflow parking, as well as the continued lack of an adequate Sunday bus service, which is an important issue for residents and visitors alike.

🚸 **SPEEDING & ROAD SAFETY**

Road safety remains a major priority for the Community Council.

We took the opportunity to highlight areas where speeding continues to create concerns for pedestrians and residents. Among the measures we are advocating for are:

• Improved and safer pavements
• Additional zebra crossing points
• Better traffic calming measures
• Increased speed enforcement
• Double yellow lines where appropriate
• Improvements to the local bus service

🛣️ **POTHOLES & ROAD MAINTENANCE**

We also showed the MSs the deteriorating condition of some of our local roads and raised concerns about the time taken to address potholes and road surface problems.

The Community Council is pushing for faster repairs and more robust resurfacing commitments, rather than simply waiting for problems to become more serious.

🤝 **WORKING FOR ST FAGANS**

We appreciate the time taken by the Members of the Senedd to visit our community, listen to residents and see these issues for themselves.

The MSs committed to taking the matters raised back to both the Senedd and Cardiff Council, including the need for appropriate resources and infrastructure improvements.

Our work does not stop with the site visit.

The Community Council will continue to follow up on these issues, press for action and keep residents informed of any highways consultations, traffic assessments, maintenance programmes or other developments affecting St Fagans.

📢 **We will continue to make sure St Fagans is heard.**
