Pa ystyriaeth y mae’r Ysgrifennydd Cabinet wedi'i rhoi i sylwadau yr Athro Mark Barry ar ei flog, South Wales Metro Professor, ar 17 Ebrill, yn datgan nad yw Caerdydd yn cael Metro mewn gwirionedd?
Cardiff is already seeing the benefits the South Wales Metro will bring both the city itself and the wider region with brand new trains already serving the city. Professor Barry himself has said that the South Wales Metro is progressing at pace and that it will deliver a radical uplift in public transport services and capacity to the core valleys bringing passengers into and out of Cardiff.
The South Wales Metro will form the backbone of the Regional Transport Plans being developed by each region of Wales to set their transport priorities over the following five years. We are working with the UK Government and Network Rail on enhancements on other lines in the region, including improvements to Cardiff West Junction which would enable more services to run on the City Line. We would welcome any additional investment from UK Government on this and the wider rail network in Wales.
