Transport Wales
Context

Discussions on improving east-west connections in north Wales, including road and rail links for economic growth.

Question

Many residents of Aberconwy and north Wales rely on good road and rail links along the north Wales coast. Does the Minister recognise the importance of this east-west axis and its benefits for cross-border working?

We certainly recognise the importance of those east-west links, evident from improvements in rail and road infrastructure. Cross-border working is vital and was demonstrated during flood recovery efforts when water supplies were transferred between English and Welsh counties.
