Public meetings on Cardiff airport access proposals
05.07.08
A series of public meetings on proposals to improve access to Cardiff Airport begin next week.
Improving the road links to the airport is seen as vital to its future and also to the economy of the surrounding area. The public consultation by the Welsh Assembly Government will highlight the three options for improving access to the airport
As well as road improvements, boosting public transport is a key part of the strategy, which includes reducing congestion at Culverhouse Cross and the road network around Cardiff.
The three options are:
Using the existing signposted route to the airport with widening to three lanes on the A4232 from M4 Junction 33 to a western bypass at Culverhouse Cross to reduce congestion.
Investigating options for route improvements using the A4232 from M4 Junction 33 and the A48 with an improved Sycamore Cross junction and improvements to the Five Mile Lane. A key choice will be bypass options at St Nicholas.
An option for routes from the M4 Junction 34 to the airport with a bypass at Pendoylan, junction improvements at Sycamore Cross junction and improvements to Five Mile Lane.
Public exhibitions providing further information on the possible improvements are to be held at the following locations;
Wenvoe Community Centre, Wenvoe: Wednesday July 9 - 10:00 - 19:00
