There’s good news for shoppers and visitors to Wrexham this Christmas as the Council have issued notice that the town centre will be free from any planned streetworks from 1st December to 7th January.

The authority wants to help make the Christmas period as enjoyable and stress free as possible for both residents and traders.

Cllr Bob Dutton, OBE, Lead Member for Environment said “Ensuring the efficient movement of traffic in and around Wrexham is a key priority for the Council, particularly in the run to Christmas. Every opportunity to create conditions to support the Town Centre through these challenging times is being taken including the introduction of free parking at two of our car parks in the Town Centre. This move to prevent planned streetworks over this period will ensure as far is possible, any disruption to Wrexham’s transport network is minimal.”

Free parking in the Town Centre is available in the People’s Market multi storey and Crescent Road car parks from 12 noon every day. Anyone using these car parks in the afternoon is required to obtain a ticket to display. Standard parking charges will still apply in both car parks up to 12 noon.

Dim Gwaith Stryd yn Wrecsam y Nadolig hwn!

Rhagor o newyddion da i siopwyr ac ymwelwyr a Wrecsam y Nadolig hwn, yw bod y Cyngor wedi cyhoeddi na fydd unrhyw waith stryd yn cael ei drefnu yng nghanol y dref rhwng 1af Rhagfyr a’r 7fed Ionawr.

Mae’r awdurdod am helpu i wneud cyfnod y Nadolig yn un mor bleserus a di-straen a phosibl i drigolion a masnachwyr.

Dywedodd y Cyng. Bob Dutton OBE, y Prif Aelod dros yr Amgylchedd:

“Mae sicrhau bod traffig yn symud yn effeithlon o amgylch Wrecsam yn flaenoriaeth allweddol i’r Cyngor, yn enwedig yn y cyfnod cyn y Nadolig. Rydym yn manteisio ar bob cyfle i greu amgylchiadau fydd yn cefnogi Canol y Dref drwy adegau anodd, gan gynnwys cyflwyno parcio am ddim mewn dau o feysydd parcio Canol y Dref. Bydd y penderfyniad hwn i atal gwaith stryd a drefnwyd dros y cyfnod hwn yn sicrhau, cyn belled a bo moss, na fydd llawer o darfu ar rwydwaith cludiant Wrecsam.”

Mae parcio am ddim ar gael yng Nghanol y Dref ym maes parcio aml-lawr Marchnad y Bobl a maes parcio Ffordd y Cilgant o hanner dydd ymlaen bob dydd. Mae gofyn i unrhyw un sy’n defnyddio’r meysydd hyn yn y prynhawn gael tocyn i’w arddangos. Bydd taliadau parcio arferol yn cael ei gweithredu yn y ddau faes parcio hyd at hanner dydd.
