Contentious Haverfordwest transport ‘hub’ discussions expected to be held behind closed doors
- 10 days ago
The contract for the second stage of Haverfordwest’s contentious near-£19m transport interchange is expected to be made behind closed doors next week by senior councillors.
The total cost of the scheme in the approved budget is £18.881m, £1.987m from Pembrokeshire County Council; the remainder, £16.894m, from an already-awarded Welsh Government grant.
To date, £3.425m has been spent on the scheme for professional fees and advanced works, including the demolition of the old multi-storey car park and a temporary bus station.
A lengthy timeline is also included in the report, dating back to a 2016 Haverfordwest Masterplan which identified the need for sustainable transport improvement for the town.
Members of Pembrokeshire County Council’s Cabinet, meeting on April 22, are recommended to approve the award of the Stage 2 construction contract for the Haverfordwest Transport Interchange.
