Will the Cabinet Secretary provide an update on the work to repair the defunct barriers on the M48?

We are reconsidering the programme on the M48 due to the weight restriction coming into force on the M48 bridge. We will continue to liaise with National Highways to ensure that the renewal of the safety barrier systems is programmed for the earliest possible opportunity. We will continue to develop the barrier replacement scheme during this financial year (25/26). The speed limit will remain at 50mph until such time as the barrier is replaced.
