The Welsh Ministers have made an Order under section 247 of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990 (“the 1990 Act”) to authorise the stopping up of the length of highway described in Schedule 1 to this Notice and to improve the area of highway described in Schedule 2 to this Notice. The Welsh Ministers are satisfied that the stopping up is necessary, and it will be authorised only in order to enable the development to be carried out in accordance with planning permission granted under Part 3 of the 1990 Act by Swansea City and County Council on 7 August 2024 with reference 2024/0733/FUL described in Schedule 3 to this Notice.

The Stopping Up of Highways (Courtlands Way, Portmead, Swansea) Order 2024 (“the Order”) ceases to have effect if planning permission in respect of the development expires or is revoked.

Copies of the Order and the deposited plan may be inspected free of charge during normal office hours at North Area Housing Office, Ffordd y Brain, Ravenhill, Swansea, SA5 5ED or may be obtained free of charge from the address below quoting reference qA2204832.

If a person is aggrieved by the Order, on the grounds that:

a. it is not within the powers of the 1990 Act; or

b. a procedural requirement of the 1990 Act has not been complied with;

that person may, within 6 weeks of 7 January 2025 make an application for the purpose to the High Court.

A copy of the Order and Notice can be viewed on the Welsh Government’s website at https://gov.wales/stopping-orders.
