Shadow Cabinet Secretary for Infrastructure, Transport & Rural Affairs, Peter Fox, has written to the Cabinet Secretary for Transport and North Wales, following a recent incident in Cardiff.

Users of St David’s Car Park in Cardiff, recently found themselves “gridlocked” for up to four hours, due to severe congestion in and around the area.

Following this incident, queries have been raised about the impact the proposed Cardiff Cross Rail scheme might have on the area in the future.

In his letter, Peter has asked if the Cross Rail proposals will have any impact for motorists wanting to use the car parks off Bute Terrace, which include St Davids, and if they do, to see what consideration has been given to mitigate this.
