What assessment has the Welsh Government made of the cost of congestion on the A494 to the north Wales economy?

Answered by Cabinet Secretary for Economy and Transport | Answered on 13/12/2018

As part of the A55/A494/A494 Flintshire Corridor Study, the economic assessment identified that the Red Route would deliver £423.5m of benefits over a 60 year period. This assessment took into account travel time and accident benefits. The delivery of this scheme therefore will bring significant benefits to the area and reduce the existing congestion costs.
