The B4282 was the main road into Porthcawl from the east.
It started on the A48 to the west of Laleston and headed southwest through Newton to the northern suburbs of Porthcawl. Here it crossed the railway line and met the southern end of the B4283 immediately afterwards.
The road then continued south through Porthcawl along John Street, ending on the Esplanade.
The B4282 became the Class I road A4106 upon the opening of the Porthcawl to Newton Arterial Road on 21 July 1926 (Eastern Promenade and a new cut at Newton). This was an agreement between the Council and Ministry of Transport.
