From our friends at the Eisteddfod: How about getting your area ready to show that you're eager to welcome new visitors?

Rhondda Heritage Park Museum is thrilled to be the only recipient in Wales of the Confederation of Passenger Transport's Coach Friendly Award!

Berw Road Car Park in Pontypridd town centre will be closed for a two-week period from June 24 to carry out concrete repairs

Residents in Aberaman are being given advanced notice of an essential upcoming scheme at Brook Street and Mount Hill Street to repair an ordinary watercourse culvert – which is likely to cause some disruption locally

Essential work on the A473 Church Village Bypass requires a single overnight road closure followed by night-time lane closures throughout next week – scheduled at night to minimise disruption

The work will take place from Monday, June 24, to Friday, June 28 – with the closures in operation from 8am to 4.30pm each day

The closure will be across 40-metres where Hillcrest Drive meets Kimberley Way, and is needed from Monday, June 24, for around two weeks

Tonight (13 June), both the Rhondda Cynon Taf National Eisteddfod's Crown and Chair are presented to the festival's Executive Committee, at a special ceremony in the Guildhall, Llantrisant.

Things are hotting up at the National Lido of Wales, Lido Ponty, with eight sessions a day EVERY day of the week until the end of July.

The Council has received planning consent for the next two elements of the Rhondda Fach Active Travel Route – to build local community links in Maerdy, and upgrade the existing community route between Ferndale and Tylorstown
