Question
Does the Welsh Government support TfW's plans for the Old Green Roundabout in Newport?
Answer
Answered by Deputy Minister for Transport (Mark Hooper)
The Welsh Government supports the plans for the Old Green Roundabout in Newport. Newport City Council has engaged Transport for Wales throughout the development and design of the scheme, which aims to transform Newport city centre and improve sustainable transport connectivity.
The scheme has been prioritised by Newport City Council with support from other local authorities across the south-east of Wales and the Cardiff Capital Region to deliver the ambitions of the Regional Transport Plan. The Welsh Government has provided £2.26 million in 2026-27 to support further development of the scheme.
