The developer of the new Morrisons store Simons, will shortly be occupying large areas of land in order to progress the retail development.  This will involve fencing off part of the informal southern car park and the area know as the 'Rugby Club' car park, plus all of the disabled spaces behind the former library site.  It is anticipated that this will take place from the 16th April 2012 and these areas will no longer be available for use as car parks. 

The proposals for the Development plateau, in the centre of Bargoed, includes provision for accessible new parking facilities for the town, alongside improved pedestrian and cycle links.  The Park & Ride Scheme also accommodates additional commuter parking and 90 car parking spaces are now available.

Hanbury Road car park

The free Hanbury Road Car Park has spectacular views of the Greater Bargoed Community Regeneration Scheme, including the new road, Angel Way and its associated 120 m Rhymney River Bridge and the Bargoed Newydd Viaduct and Commercial Street Link Road.  The Hanbury Road Car Park is also the prime location for community events such as the Christmas Fun Day and the free outdoor cinema, the Big Screen.
