Let’s Take It To The Bridge for Project PAU
Is there parking?
Yes. There is a public car park at Penmaenpool, just a short walk from the bridge.
We have also teamed up with The George III, so if you’re planning to eat, have a drink or stay overnight, you can use their car park. Please don’t park at The George III unless you are using the pub or staying there
Are their toilets?
Yes. There are public toilets at Penmaenpool, close to the event area. The facilities include an accessible toilet.
How does the course work?
It’s a simple out-and-back course across the bridge. One complete out-and-back is 1km, so you simply keep going until you’ve completed your chosen distance.
What happens if the weather’s bad?
This is Wales in November, so come prepared for whatever the weather throws at us! We’ll share any important event updates with participants ahead of the day.
