Last week, our Parks Team were busy helping pupils at Sully Primary plant dozens of plants outside the school, with the aim of improving biodiversity.

Council staff helping Sully pupil with plantingBoth the pupils and our staff had a wonderful morning and were thrilled with the result.

Planting of the flower bed followed the construction of an improved footpath and road outside of the school, completed by our Active Travel and Engineering Teams.

The collaboration between the Council and Sully Primary School has been key in the development of the new footpath.

Council staff helping Sully pupil with plantingLed by the Active Travel team, the Council drafted the initial design in Summer 2023, in collaboration with Sustrans (UK based “walking, wheeling and cycling” charity). Following the successful grant of ‘Safe Routes in Communities’ funding by the Welsh Government in January 2024, our Engineering Team began construction over the Summer.

This project is a great example of the Council and local communities coming together to improve local areas.

Da iawn to all our staff and Sully Primary pupils for all their hard work in completing this project!
