The Welsh Government has announced an investment of £110m to boost local transport.

The grants will support projects focused on improving the condition of local roads and piloting new bus services.

They will also support the creation of inclusive streets that make it easier for people to walk, wheel and cycle and the rollout of more publicly available electric vehicle charging points.

The cabinet secretary for transport and north Wales, Ken Skates, said: ‘Connecting communities and delivering better transport for all is at the heart of this £110m investment.

‘We want to make it easier for people to travel to work, school, healthcare and to see friends and family, while also building a more sustainable transport network for future generations.’
