The Deputy Minister, who has responsibility for transport, will also meet with representatives from Gwynedd and Anglesey councils to discuss the important maintenance works.


The new package put together in partnership with UK Highways A55 Ltd and Anglesey and Gwynedd County Councils, includes an extensive range of measures, including free parking, traffic flow solutions, access to active travel routes and additional bus stops to support people affected by the bridge closure.


From 1 December free parking will be available at car parks in Menai Bridge town and at the two park and share sites throughout December and January. This practical support measure has been put in place to assist local businesses dependent on Christmas trade, help reduce the numbers of vehicles wishing to cross the A55 Britannia Bridge and ease commuting times for those seeking to travel to and from Anglesey. These steps have been taken in addition to other signage measures that are currently in place.


To assist with the loss of bus services on the island following the closure of the bridge, the council has provided additional stops closer to the Menai Suspension Bridge to allow the general public to travel by bus and walk across the bridge instead of being potentially held\-up in traffic on the A55\. They are also using their community transport to help the more rural communities affected by the bridge closure.


Local authorities are also considering active travel routes to allow cyclists to use ‘hire bikes’ to potentially be used in Menai Bridge and Bangor.


An emergency services contingency plan to utilise Menai Suspension Bridge when the A55 Britannia Bridge is closed has been developed and the gates on the Menai Suspension Bridge to allow emergency access across the structure during very extreme events were installed last week.


Deputy Minister for Climate Change, Lee Waters said:



> “We understand people’s frustrations and the inconvenience and disruption caused to the local community.
> 
> 
>  “We have been working closely with UK Highways A55 Ltd and local authorities to introduce these measures to help alleviate people’s concerns and ensure disruption is kept to a minimum as essential work continues on the Menai Suspension Bridge.”


Anglesey Council’s Leader, Councillor Llinos Medi, said,



> “We are pleased to see these support measures introduced today. Since the closure of the Menai Suspension Bridge, we have been strongly advocating for support to be provided to local businesses.
> 
> 
> “The Menai Suspension Bridge is a vital gateway to and from the town centre. We are hopeful these set of measures will go some way to help support local businesses that have reported a fall in trade since the closure of the bridge.
> 
> 
> “We are currently analysing the results from a recent online survey shared with local businesses. This work will enable us to continue dialogue with Welsh Government in respect of further support, if needed, throughout the closure period. Menai Bridge is very much open for business, and I encourage residents and visitors to visit the town and support local businesses in the area.”

Bydd y Dirprwy Weinidog, sydd â chyfrifoldeb am drafnidiaeth, hefyd yn cyfarfod â chynrychiolwyr o gynghorau Gwynedd a Môn i drafod gwaith cynnal a chadw pwysig.


Mae'r pecyn newydd a grëwyd mewn partneriaeth ag UK Highways A55 Ltd a Chynghorau Sir Ynys Môn a Gwynedd yn cynnwys ystod helaeth o fesurau, gan gynnwys parcio am ddim, datrysiadau i wella llif y traffig, mynediad at lwybrau teithio llesol a safleoedd bws ychwanegol i gefnogi’r bobl y mae’r penderfyniad i gau’r bont yn effeithio arnynt.


O 1 Rhagfyr ymlaen bydd modd parcio am ddim mewn meysydd parcio yn nhref Porthaethwy ac yn y ddau safle parcio a rhannu drwy gydol mis Rhagfyr ac Ionawr. Caiff y cymorth ymarferol hwn ei ddarparu i helpu busnesau lleol sy’n dibynnu ar fasnach dros gyfnod y Nadolig ac i leihau nifer y cerbydau sy'n dymuno croesi A55 Pont Britannia. Bydd hefyd yn gwella amser teithio i’r rheini sydd am deithio i Ynys Môn ac oddi yno. Cymerwyd y camau hyn yn ogystal â gosod arwyddion sydd eisoes yn eu lle.


I gynorthwyo gyda cholli gwasanaethau bws ar yr ynys ar ôl i'r bont gau, mae'r cyngor wedi darparu arosfannau ychwanegol yn nes at Bont Menai er mwyn caniatáu i'r cyhoedd deithio ar fws a cherdded dros y bont yn lle eu bod o bosib yn aros mewn traffig ar yr A55\. Mae’r cyngor hefyd yn defnyddio trafnidiaeth gymunedol i helpu'r cymunedau mwy gwledig y mae’r penderfyniad i gau’r bont wedi effeithio arnynt.


Mae awdurdodau lleol hefyd yn ystyried llwybrau teithio llesol er mwyn caniatáu i feicwyr ddefnyddio 'beiciau llogi' i bobl o bosib gael eu defnyddio ym Mhorthaethwy a Bangor.


Datblygwyd cynllun wrth gefn y gwasanaethau brys i ddefnyddio Pont Menai pan fydd yr A55 Pont Britannia ar gau a gosodwyd y gatiau ar y Bont er mwyn caniatáu mynediad brys ar draws y strwythur yn ystod digwyddiadau eithafol iawn yr wythnos diwethaf.


Dywedodd y Dirprwy Weinidog Newid Hinsawdd, Lee Waters:



> "Rydym yn deall rhwystredigaethau pobl a'r anghyfleustra a'r aflonyddwch a achosir i'r gymuned leol.
> 
> 
> "Rydym wedi bod yn gweithio'n agos gyda UK Highways A55 Ltd ac awdurdodau lleol i gyflwyno'r mesurau hyn i helpu i leddfu pryderon pobl a sicrhau cyn lleied â phosib o aflonyddwch wrth i'r gwaith hanfodol barhau ar Bont Menai."


Dywedodd Arweinydd Cyngor Môn, y Cynghorydd Llinos Medi,



> "Rydym yn falch o weld y mesurau cymorth hyn yn cael eu cyflwyno heddiw. Ers cau Pont Menai rydym wedi bod yn gryf o blaid rhoi cymorth i fusnesau lleol.
> 
> 
> "Mae Pont Menai yn borth hanfodol i ganol y dref. Rydym yn obeithiol y bydd y set hon o fesurau yn mynd rhywfaint o'r ffordd i helpu i gefnogi busnesau lleol sydd wedi nodi gostyngiad mewn masnach ers cau'r bont.
> 
> 
> "Rydym ar hyn o bryd yn dadansoddi'r canlyniadau o arolwg ar\-lein diweddar sydd wedi'i rannu gyda busnesau lleol. Bydd y gwaith hwn yn ein galluogi i barhau i drafod gyda Llywodraeth Cymru o ran cymorth pellach, os oes angen, drwy gydol y cyfnod cau. Mae Porthaethwy ar agor yn llwyr i fusnesau ac rwy'n annog trigolion ac ymwelwyr i ymweld â'r dref a chefnogi busnesau lleol yn yr ardal."
