The centre contained a variety of businesses with a range of services. The centre also includes important community facilities such as the Bawnogue Youth & Community Centre, ACE Enterprise Park, Bawnogue Church of the Transfiguration, Talbot National School, and Bawnogue Shopping Centre.
The proposed scheme is to upgrade and enhance the local community of Bawnogue, making it more accessible, sustainable, and attractive for residents, businesses, and visitors. This includes work to the local streetscape along Bawnogue Road by introducing traffic calming measures, promoting active travel, and introducing wider pedestrian areas with landscaping and SuDS elements throughout.
• Cycle facilities – Provision of a new segregated cycle route on western extents of Bawnogue Road. Improvements will also include the introduction of cycle parking facilities.
• Pedestrian facilities – new multi-use plaza area in front of ACE Enterprise Park and the Community Centre/Creche. Works also include improved crossing facilities from adjacent shopping facilities to the east of Bawnogue Road to the ACE Enterprise Park and Community Centre areas.
• Drainage – Introduction of SuDS elements in existing soft landscaping verge on eastern extents of Bawnogue Road to help treat and attenuate surface water runoff throughout the scheme.
• Car Parking – rationalising of available carparking space. Bawnogue Shopping Centre car parking facilities and pedestrian access will be improved. Space in adjacent car parks to be utilised to allow additional space in scheme to be used for enhanced pedestrian and non motorised user facilities.
• Junctions – junction geometry to be tightened in line with DMURS to help lower traffic speeds within area. Where feasible, raised tables to be introduced at junctions/crossing points to act as traffic calming measures and provide level, step-free facilities for pedestrians throughout the scheme.
