The final cost of Cardiff Parkway, with its four platforms, will depend on further design work. However, it is likely to be north of £130m.

We are going to cancel our AA membership today. First time in ten years we have called them to help us out and they refused, so poor

Today, @vaughangething asked @PrifWeinidog for an update on the delivery of the #CardiffParkway. We agree with Vaughan. We want Wales to be a place where ambitions are realised not simply discussed but actively delivered on.

🚊Long awaited news that will directly unlock economic growth and investment in South Wales. This will be one of Wales's biggest infrastructure projects, directly leading to new high skilled jobs and improved connectivity for millions of people. Time to get digging 🚜!

This does need calling out more! No development is universally popular, but when BBC went looking for voxpops in St Mellons recently, trying to show 'both sides', they failed to find anyone opposed! The handful of individuals behind the Civic Society do not speak for Cardiff.
Great illustration how infrastructure and housing stuff is covered in Wales. New station announced after years of delays. Couple of lines from the developer. 8 (eight) paragraphs from Cardiff Civic Society saying it's an absolute disaster.

I'm delighted with the news that Cardiff Parkway has been approved at long last. I'm proud to have supported this investment from the outset. It will provide excellent transport links and high quality jobs in the east of the city. https://t.co/FHJcn3Kvh6
