Cwmbran: Placemaking Plan

Regenerating Cwmbran Town Centre

People who live and work in Cwmbran are encouraged to take the opportunity to have their say on an ambitious and exciting Placemaking Plan for Cwmbran Town Centre.

What is the Placemaking Plan?
The Placemaking Plan is aimed at improving and shaping the future of the town centre, making it a better place to live, work and invest in.

The Placemaking Plan aims to provide the council and its partners with an investment plan that guides the redevelopment of the town centre with the aim of making it more successful, resilient and able to meet the current and future needs of the community and businesses.

Visionary in its approach, supported by strategic objectives that seek to deliver tangible change, the plan addresses key challenges and sets investment aspirations over the next 10 years, up to 2034. The plan includes a mixture of project proposals that range from pre-development activity through to oven ready projects that can be progressed over the short, medium and long term in partnership with the public, private and third sectors.
