Thank you for the answer, First Minister. The Department of Transport projects that traffic along the M4 in Wales is set to increase by nearly 38 per cent over the next 30 years. In 2015, accident rates on some sections of motorway were still above the national average in spite of introducing variable speed cameras on some dangerous spots on the M4. Some sections of the M4 have alignments that are below current motorway standards, lack a hard shoulder, and have frequent junctions, causing vehicles to change lanes over relatively short distances. First Minister, you and your Government haven't fulfilled its commitment of its manifesto for the last election for the relief road. When will you take the action required to improve the safety and congestion on the M4, please?
