We have a vision for the Welsh transport system to truly connect Wales and to boost growth.

It is time for a third Menai Bridge, increasing capacity and improving trade between Wales and Ireland. Saving taxpayer money by reducing delays at Holyhead Port.

A relief road at the Brynglas Tunnels, the busiest road in Wales. A change estimated to bring in between 2 and 3 billion pounds from increased business.

Completing plans for a Swansea to Devon ferry link. A project which would improve travel times, cut congestion, and reduce Wales’ climate impact.

Building a rail network which links north and south Wales with a new line between Aberystwyth and Carmarthen. Increasing capacity and creating a direct train line between mid and south Wales.

To achieve all of this, we need a fair funding agreement between Westminster and Wales.

Wales deserves a well-funded, well-connected transport system, one that connects rural areas and allows Wales to reach its full economic potential.

Let’s get Wales back on track.
