Does the Welsh Government have any plans to fund and erect a noise barrier on the eastbound side of the A55 just past junction 17?
Through noise mapping surveys undertaken to support our Noise and Soundscape Action Plan for Wales, an Action Plan Priority Area has been identified on the section of the A55 eastbound carriageway between Junction 17 and the Conwy Tunnel.
However, this location is one of over 200 such Priority Areas in Wales and at this time there are several locations with a higher priority for mitigation. Mitigation measures will continue to be implemented on a priority basis with progress dependent on available funding and I am not able at this time to provide you with a timescale for when this area will be investigated.
