Clwyd West AM Darren Millar has called for more action from the Welsh Government to secure direct rail links to Liverpool and Manchester airports to stimulate the North Wales economy.
Speaking in the Senedd this week, Darren, who has long been calling for improved services for North Wales travellers, made fresh calls for Ministers to give the people of North Wales better public transport access to the international transport hubs.
He said:
“Improvements to routes between North Wales and airports in Liverpool and Manchester are critical in connecting businesses and individuals to markets and job opportunities.
“These are improvements that I have long been calling for and rail travellers have long been waiting for. The Transport Minister has outlined her commitment to improving the rail network here in North Wales, but we are seeing little focus on links to international airports.
“The Welsh Government have invested millions in improving transport links in south Wales – it’s about time North Wales got some extra focus.”
