I have regular meetings with the Chair and the Chief Executive Officer of Transport for Wales where I have been clear about our priority to deliver the CVL Transformation Programme quickly and efficiently. I have asked Transport for Wales to accelerate works wherever possible, including integrating contractors to deliver concurrently, and stockpiling resources.
