A yw'r Gweinidog Cabinet wedi adolygu'r achos busnes dros orsaf drenau yng Nghaerllion a luniwyd gan grŵp ymgyrchu TRACS, ac os felly, beth yw barn y Llywodraeth amdano?
I appreciate and welcome the high-quality work undertaken by Towards Restoring A Caerleon Station (TRACS) to highlight the potential benefits of a railway station at Caerleon to passengers and local communities. A new station at Caerleon could reduce road congestion both locally and more widely in the M4 corridor. Rail infrastructure, such as a new station at Caerleon, is a reserved responsibility of the UK Government.
Our current priority for rail is the delivery of the schemes already funded through the UK Government’s Spending Review, including new stations in south-east Wales and upgrades to the South Wales Main Line. These improvements will help lay the foundations for further enhancements.
The joint UK and Welsh Government Wales Rail Board is overseeing the strategic pipeline and will consider and prioritise schemes for the next UK Government Spending Review in 2027. This will include consideration of potential new stations in Wales.
