Part of 1. Questions to the Cabinet Secretary for Economy and Transport – in the Senedd at 1:36 pm on 7 February 2018.
Thank you, Cabinet Secretary. When Sustrans looked into how 25 disused railway tunnels in Wales could be converted into active travel routes, there was one clear winner. That's the Abernant tunnel, which links Cwmbach in my constituency to Merthyr Tydfil, which scored highest on the rate system in terms of both benefit-to-cost ratio and annual usage estimate. Some work has been ongoing between Rhondda Cynon Taf council and Merthyr council regarding this, but how can the Welsh Government engage and support this scheme, which has huge potential in terms of promoting cycling and walking within the Valleys?
