Dragging on since 1991

The M4 relief Rd. looks like the t0$$ers in The bay are going to drag it out for another few months.
Just build it

M25 anybody, just build it and that's all the transport problems over, oh, hang on...

I find that those complaining about population rarely offer to sacrifice themselves or their family for the cause.

So lets all sit about and let south east Wales, by far and away the most important political and economic sphere of our country sit in the 1970s. Have a day off.

I'm no City planner but if travelling into the center of Cardiff is already difficult I can't see why you would relocate major offices into town, the HMRC office for example, without first improving travel options. For me, we need an upgrade to Cardiff Central train station and if there is no space to expand then a second medium sized station to be built.

If you take that thinking and apply it to Wales as a country then we need to either a) improve travel options before cramming everything into smallest possible area and/or b) spread things out a bit more. Instead Alun Cairns wants everything crammed into Cardiff/Bristol area and isn't supporting job opportunities outside this region or much needed improvements to travel options, unless boosting travel around Bristol area equally/firstly.

Unless you're in London, it seems that there is no spend that's worth the taxpayer's money.

Can't wait until the 100's of homes are built North of Cardiff, the BBC site too, all trying to get into the City. The clowns in the assembly are still trying to get private funding for their 'lagoon' in Swansea Bay.

God help us. The Scots and Irish politicians can be annoying, but I dread giving any extra powers to the Taffs down the bay...

No argument here, what you're saying is right... but it doesn't detract from the fact the relief road is needed on the M4. Cardiff desperately needs the Parkway train station to become a reality, as does it need a relatively big station on Newport road. I would say that when (if) the metro gets up and running, the potential for places in the Valleys to have bigger employment bases is fairly open.
