Ateb
Atebwyd gan Deputy Minister for Transport (Mark Hooper)
Rail infrastructure outside of the Core Valley Lines in the south east of Wales is the reserved responsibility of the UK Government. There are no current plans to reinstate the railway line between Penyffordd and the east of Mold or any current plans for a study into the potential re-opening. The Welsh Government’s current priorities for improving the rail network are set out within Transport for Wales’ rail vision “Today, Tomorrow, Together”. I am committed to improving connectivity and access to public transport across Wales, particularly for communities with limited transport options. In many circumstances this will be more achievable with improved bus services rather than re-opening rail lines.
