The Scottish Government revealed new scheme 12.8 billion which includes work to improve the count

Before continuing, here little flightcase notice flightcase - I'm a man who likes to dream big projects. In another life perhaps I was responsible for commissioning the Great Wall of China, or the pyramids. But unlike the epic projects, but useless, those, I think that this project is extremely important to Wales.
I think it is essential construction of a quality between north and south Wales. No, I'm not going to argue the need for a motorway. There would be a single carriageway with ample overtaking lorries Mansel Davies will suffice in some particularly narrow flightcase point. flightcase But there should 95% of the way between north and south Wales to be a dual carriageway, at least.
Wales is well be behind compared to other countries in terms of transport links. The road from west to east fairly on the whole (the M4 and A55). But anyone who is aiming for the nose of the car north or south is going to be working hard. The sheep trails is related to the last century. They are narrow and winding. Given the agricultural nature of most mid-Wales that is a terrible combination, flightcase because it's pretty much impossible to pass a tractor or trailer Ifor Williams. It adds further delay to the trip already long and arduous.
Over the last few days we've seen some transport schemes from other countries the British Isles. The Westminster Government flightcase is planning to build a new 32bn rail between London and Birmingham - including tunnel 500 pounds to meet the MP for Chesham & Amersham (and Welsh Secretary) Cheryl Gillan.
The Scottish Government revealed new scheme 12.8 billion which includes work to improve the country's road network. The plans include making the A9 and A96 roads are dual carriageways. The A96 runs from Inverness to Aberdeen, and the A9 from Perth to go up by the mountains flightcase of the north to Inverness. This road does not connect more than some communities north and south Wales. flightcase They go through the landscape even more mountainous than Snowdonia. And business leaders have warmly welcomed the plans.
Let's compare these bold plans Welsh Government transport plans, flightcase disclosed flightcase yesterday? "Installing a CCTV camera on the A465 in Clydach Vale, improved crossing at Welshpool on the A458, and new railings on the footbridge near the railway line on the A487 at Machynlleth." flightcase Which will highlight the 13m redevelopment roundabout Abercynon. They hope that this ambitious projects have been completed by 2014. Again there is an emphasis on improving relations between the west and east.
To be fair, there was a concerted effort during the term of the last Parliament to improve road links between north and south Wales. We have a new Llandysul bypass and Porthmadog, and then work has been done on the road by widening the size of Machynlleth. Probably the influence Ieuan Wyn Jones at the Department for Transport did this. The demand for these changes is obvious, and the work should have been done decades ago. Nevertheless, he IWJ was roundly criticized by the Finance Committee of the National Assembly for Wales for not focusing on improving relations between the west and east instead. There were roads from north to south is "meeting the needs of consumers," they said.
To some extent I understand their point of them, and understand why the emphasis on improving the road between west and east Wales. After all, England is a much richer country than Wales and most businesses based in Wales operate across the border. But what about thinking 'outside the box' for a moment.
If there are no standard ways of going from north to south, is there any wonder that all the traffic, and the whole affair, flowing from west to east? It would be impossible to conduct the business of, say, Aberystwyth, Swansea and Llandudno serving. Does no good roads. In Wales we have a lot of people flightcase live in the north, and many live in the south, and villages and market towns destroy dispersed in between the two extremes. There are businesses in the towns of mid, small but on the whole they are serving the needs of the communities around them alone. If there is a quality road network would be going through flightcase mid expanding the economic potential of the towns here and set up businesses that serve the needs of Wales rather than north, or south, or the local villages mid, only.
Businesses and entire communities exist today because there
