New Question Mark Over Dinas Powys By-Pass
Vale MP Alun Cairns has expressed his concern over the possible implications for a future by-pass around Dinas Powys after it was revealed by a council official that land allocated for the road is part of a 300 house development between Murch and Sully Road.
Vale of Glamorgan Council officials confirmed that a plan for 300 houses set out in the Local Development Plan (LDP) encroaches onto land historically allocated for the proposed by-pass.
Mr Cairns said: “I am very concerned that land that was previously allocated for the by-pass will now be used, in part, for housing. I have long called for a by-pass for Dinas Powys to be made a priority. The traffic situation is worsening, and I am calling on the local authority to set out clearly what impact land use could have on future road projects.”
