Repeated closures of the Menai Bridge are causing significant disruption for residents, commuters and local businesses across Ynys Môn. The Welsh Conservatives have reiterated their calls for a third crossing to be built.
Commenting, Welsh Conservative Shadow Minister for Enterprise, Connectivity and Energy, Janet Finch-Saunders MS said:
“It is unacceptable how frequently the Menai Bridge is being closed, given it is a vital link between the mainland and Ynys Môn.
“These repeated closures are causing major disruption for residents, commuters and local businesses across the area.
“That is why we believe a third Menai crossing is needed to improve resilience. The First Minister must now outline how he will deliver a third Menai crossing to support the local economy and ensure commuters are not repeatedly disrupted in his own neck of the woods.”
