In response to the Member’s question, this is an issue, and the Member knows well that this is part of wider improvements to the A55 to ensure that it does serve the people of north Wales better. So, actually managing those improvements, as you say, has to involve all those who have a key part to play so that delays are kept to an absolute minimum. I’m advised that work is taking place 24/7 in order to ensure it’s completed before the busy Easter period. I think also, just in terms of engagement, as I said, with appropriate authorities, officers from Conwy council have been consulted on these improvements, they’re being kept informed of progress, appropriate signs have been located along the A55, and it is important that the travelling public are made aware of traffic restrictions. The Traffic Wales website is updated whenever required.
