As I was sitting in a pub earlier today, sorting some Student Union stuff out, my eyes caught sight of some men from the council tearing down the covering on an abandoned shop opposite. After a short period of time,  the previously whitened-out windows were now covered in large displays showing the proposals for the regeneration of Aberystwyth, including the promenade, bandstand, and general street condition.

It was an interesting choice by the council to make use of an abandoned shop front for this purpose. It certainly worked, perhaps in part due to its prominence, and being on a junction with high foot-fall. I do hope they publish this information prominently elsewhere, though.

The council invites you to respond to the proposals by emailing aberystwythregeneration@wales.gsi.gov.uk

I’ve attached photos of the information, to save you wandering out in the cold. Apologies for the glare, blurriness, and occasional cut-off of text due to poor angle.
