The Treorchy to Treherbert Travel Route Phase 1 is proposed to be a new walking and cycling route between Treherbert Railway Station and Penyrenglen School in the Rhondda Fawr Valley.
The Route will follow mostly parallel to the route of the existing railway line and will provide a link from the local communities of Treherbert to the Penyrenglen Primary School.
The proposal aims to enhance connectivity to key destinations, including the train station, the school, and the wider community and is to establish a coherent, direct, safe, comfortable, and attractive off-road link where feasible, integrating with both existing and planned Active Travel networks.
The proposed Treorchy to Treherbert Active Travel Route has been split into 3 phases.
Phase 1 is currently in the design phase and is planned to be completed by Spring 2026, already funded by Welsh Government.
Phase 2 and Phase 3, linking Treherbert to Treorchy, are planned for public consultation later on in 2025, depending on funding availability
The consultation will close on the 31 July 2025.
The consultation documents and supporting material can be found below.
