The Welsh Government has allocated an additional £17 million to help local authorities deliver regeneration projects that will transform town and city centres across Wales.
The funding boost increases the Transforming Towns budget for 2025-26 from £40 million to £57 million to support more projects that can deliver on our regeneration ambitions.
This investment will create jobs, boost economic activity and breathe new life into high streets and town centres nationwide.
The Cabinet Secretary for Housing and Local Government, Jayne Bryant, announced the funding while visiting regeneration sites in Wrexham.
The Cabinet Secretary said: "Through the Welsh Government’s Transforming Towns programme, we have invested more than £156 million over the past three years and this additional £17 million will accelerate that progress, breathing new life into town centres across Wales and delivering the economic growth that our communities deserve."
