It has been announced today that all major road building projects have been halted as part of the Welsh Government’s National Transport Plan.
The move was announced by Deputy Minister Lee Waters who cited environmental reasons, saying "we will not get to net zero unless we stop doing the same thing over and over”.
These halted projects include the Pontybat safety scheme.
James said:
“It’s sad to see Labour riding roughshod over the needs of people in Wales.
“We desperately need new roads to be built, especially when the state of public transport is so bad.
“This roadbuilding freeze will only restrict the Welsh economy and leave us trailing further behind the rest of the UK.”
