The North Wales Expressway travels through Colwyn Bay, heading west to Holyhead and east to Chester via Bangor and Conwy. The other key road is the A547 between Conwy and Prestatyn. Station Road in the town centre is pedestrianised, with a bollard system that only permits disabled badge holders, emergency services and delivery vehicles between 11am and 4pm. Arriva operates most bus services in Colwyn Bay, and the railway station is on the North Wales Coast Line.
Since Colwyn Bay is on the coast, cars in this area may experience a higher level of corrosion on key components, requiring them to be replaced more often. The bodywork starts to rust first; other parts most at risk include the brake callipers, nuts, and bolts. You can help to prevent this from happening by regularly washing your car, especially after a trip to the beach. Since rust spreads and eats away at metal components, it's best to get it fixed sooner rather than later. FixMyCar can help you find a bodywork specialist near Colwyn Bay.
