Trallwng is an electoral ward in Rhondda Cynon Taf, Wales, on the southern fringes of the town of Pontypridd. The ward sits beside the River Taff and the old valley transport routes, with a mix of traditional terraced streets and post‑war housing; like much of the area it has roots in the South Wales coalfield era and still shows that industrial heritage in its street pattern and older buildings.
Today Trallwng is largely residential with local shops, community facilities and easy rail and road links that make commuting to Cardiff and neighbouring employment centres straightforward. The proximity to the Treforest industrial and business areas, plus ongoing local regeneration projects, gives the ward a pragmatic, community‑minded character with active local groups and a steady focus on improving services and public spaces.
