Have your say on new green infrastructure projects proposed for Caia Park and Plas Madoc

A series of new green infrastructure projects could soon happen in the Caia Park and Plas Madoc area.

Residents on the two estates are being invited to have their say on the proposals, which include wildlife meadows, natural foraging areas, orchards. One area will have a Scots Pine tree especially for Christmas Celebrations.

Images released by Wrexham Council show what is suggested for Caia Park – Eaton Drive, Y-Wern, The Dunks, Queensway and Gwenfro and for Plas Madoc at Hampden Way and land by the Sports Field and Leisure Centre.

Cllr David A Bithell, Lead Member for environment and transport, said: “These are creative and imaginative proposals and I fully support the improvements for these areas.

“The work already undertaken by the Green Infrastructure Project Officer has seen large scale environmental improvements in Caia Park as was seen by the Wildflower Meadow that was in full bloom earlier in the year.

“Please feel free to have your say about the proposals.”

Jacinta Challinor, Green Infrastructure Officer, said: “We hope that people will welcome the proposals that will bring ecological and environmental improvements to the areas mentioned.

“We’re also happy for people to put forward suggestions for other projects in these areas so please get in touch and we can take a look at what we can do with future improvements.”

To take part and have your say please email [email protected] or contact your local councillor.

The consultation is taking place now and ends on Friday, September 18.
