QNR – in the Senedd on 7 February 2018.
Our economic action plan sets out our approach to enable all parts of Wales to benefit from economic growth. We will continue to invest in infrastructure improvements, skills and the general environment for business across Wales including south-west Wales.
The £1.5 million will support our work on foundation sectors as set out in the economic action plan and 'Our Valleys, Our Future'.
Our priority is to ensure that ports policy is part of an integrated approach to achieving the strategic outcomes of 'Prosperity for All'. This approach is reflected in our draft national marine plan, the national transport finance plan and will be further strengthened through the upcoming Welsh transport strategy.
Ministers have agreed a sum of £2 million in the draft budget for 2019-20 for removal of the tolls. Officials have met, and are working with Pembrokeshire County Council, the bridge owners, to establish the ongoing cost of maintaining the bridge and the potential next steps in removing the tolls.
The 'Prosperity for All' national strategy and economic action plan set out the actions we are taking to improve the economy and business environment across Wales.
We provide funding to local authorities through the local transport fund, Safe Routes in Communities scheme and road safety grant for active travel. We will also plan active travel improvements as part of our trunk road walking and cycling programme and build these into all our major projects.
