Calls For Traffic Solution


Carl Sargeant AM calls for a Deeside Bypass
Carl Sargeant Welsh Assembly Member for Alyn & Deeside has been conducting a resident survey into traffic congestion issues in the Deeside area. The survey is ongoing and to date the overwhelming results of the residents survey is that 81% of Deeside residents are calling for the traffic nightmare in Shotton to be resolved.
Carl Sargeant is calling upon Flintshire County Council to bring forward immediate plans for a Deeside bypass to end the traffic nightmare in Shotton. Possible solutions could include a coastal bypass from Garden City to Connah's Quay.
Carl Sargeant AM for Alyn & Deeside, speaking today said;
“It can take over half an hour to travel along the main road from Queensferry to Connah’s Quay via Shotton, the congestion is almost constant and whilst this causes misery for local businesses, commuters and residents alike, it is proving to be the biggest traffic concern in the area and Flintshire County Council have a duty to bring forward plans to resolve the situation, it is time for the Council to act.”
