QNR – in the Senedd on 22 January 2020.
We are supporting the north-east Wales economy in many ways, as outlined in the economic action plan. A recent example is the creation of a further 40 jobs at KK Fine Foods in Deeside, thanks to investment of just over £0.5 million through our economy futures fund.
The Welsh Government will invest in all modes to deliver the modern, high quality transport system that is fundamental to achieving our sustainability and climate change objectives and delivering economic growth across Wales, including South Wales West, connecting people to jobs and services, and businesses to markets.
'Low Carbon Wales' sets a target that, in 2020, transport emissions will be 11 per cent lower than in 2016. Tackling the climate emergency requires a radical change in the way we travel. We are allocating an extra £74 million for decarbonisation transport measures in 2020-21, directly and indirectly.
Public transport is a top priority to connect communities across Wales as well as tackling climate change. We are investing in rail and bus services with an additional £29 million to encourage low-emission vehicles, providing increased greener public transport for the future.
