<p>The Office of the Secretary of State for Wales regularly engages with the Welsh
Government on a wide range of transport matters.</p><p> </p><p>The Welsh Government’s
continued opposition to the M4 Relief Road is holding the Welsh economy back, which
is of great disappointment and only serves to project that Wales is closed for business.
In rejecting the case for the M4 Relief Road, the Welsh Government are going against
the findings of their own £150 million report, which recommended that the M4 Relief
Road be built. The UK Government urges the Welsh Government to reconsider the impact
of their roads policy on the long-term prosperity of Wales.</p><p> </p><p>While decisions
around the M4 in Wales remain a devolved matter, the UK Government is committed to
playing its part in delivering better connectivity in reserved areas – including funding
a study to develop options for new stations and services on the South Wales Main Line.</p>
