Will the Cabinet Secretary provide an update on the Welsh Government's plans relating to the Pencoed level crossing?
Answered by Cabinet Secretary for North Wales and Transport
| Answered on 25/06/2024
We have provided funding to Bridgend County Borough Council through the Local Transport Fund for the development of a WelTAG study to enable the closure of Pencoed level crossing. As rail infrastructure outside of the Core Valley Lines is a devolved matter, funding would be needed from the UK Government for the proposed closure and its associated mitigations.
Should funding become available from UK Government for the scheme, the Welsh Government will work positively with partners to ensure all stakeholders are engaged.
