Colwyn Bay
Colwyn Bay (Welsh: Bae Colwyn) is a town and seaside resort in Conwy county borough on the North Wales coast. The A55 road passes through the town, running parallel to the North Wales Coast Line.
The town is served by Colwyn Bay railway station.
Prior to local government reorganisation on 1 April 1974 Colwyn Bay was a municipal borough with a population of c. 25,000, but in 1974 this designation disappeared leaving five separate parishes, known as communities in Wales. In the 2001 Census the community of Colwyn Bay contained just 9,742 people, with the others as follows: Mochdre (1,862), Rhos-on-Sea (7,110), Old Colwyn (7,626) and Llysfaen (2,652). This gives a total figure for the five communities of 28,992, generally referred to as the population of Colwyn Bay, making it the 16th largest urban area in Wales and the second largest settlement in North Wales. The Colwyn Bay Town Council is a statutory body. The mayor for 2009-2010 is Councillor Abdul Mukith Khan, Plaid Cymru. The deputy mayor is Councillor Hazel Meredith, Conservative. The Bay of Colwyn is a Fairtrade Town as certified by the Fairtrade Foundation as part of the Fairtrade Towns scheme.
