Deiseb a wrthodwyd Support and Fund Mainline links to Llangollen Railway to Connect it to Ruabon and Bala

With Corwen Railway station now open, the next step for Llangollen Railway is for it to become a Community Railway Partnership line, and to then integrate it as soon as possible with an externally reinstated rail link over the 5 mile disused route eastwards through Trevor back to the mainline network at Ruabon. Then later to reinstate the 10 miles of line west from Corwen to Bala and onwards for a further 25 miles through Trawsfynydd to connect it to the Conwy Valley Line at Blaenau Ffestiniog.

Two areas of trackbed are now at imminent risk of being blocked off: these are the site of the former Acrefair Station, where a housing estate is planned to be built across and along the railway land (See details on pages 41-52 of this file: https://cl-assets.public-i.tv/wrexham/document/DC_Report_6_March_2017_Final.pdf), and just east of Llangollen Station where there is 'The Four Great Highways' scheme (https://www.denbighshire.gov.uk/en/community-and-living/community-development/levelling-up-fund/four-great-highways/four-great-highways.aspx) which plans to build landscaping and footpaths across and along the railway route. These could be avoided if Wrexham CBC and Denbighshire CC protect a 6-metre wide strip of land in their areas to allow for a railway reinstatement between Llangollen and Ruabon. Other portions of the route are generally clear to reinstate with relatively straightforward construction works and no obstacles that pose showstoppers to making the vision become reality.

Pam gwrthodwyd y ddeiseb hon?

Mae’n ymwneud â rhywbeth nad yw’r Senedd na Llywodraeth Cymru yn gyfrifol amdano.

Dim ond deisebau nad ydynt yn bodloni’r safonau ar gyfer deisebau y byddwn yn eu gwrthod

Mae deisebau a wrthodwyd yn cael eu cyhoeddi yn yr iaith y cawsant eu cyflwyno ynddi
