A proposed new metro line that would run between Llantrisant and Cardiff could cost more than £500m, it has been revealed. A report launched today (Friday, June 10), titled 'The Case for a Llantrisant to Cardiff Metro', revealed some long and short-term visions of the proposal.
If it goes ahead, the line would be part of the wider South Wales Metro project. Increased frequency of trains on lines between Cardiff Central and Radyr and Cardiff and Pontyclun, and a new 'parkway' station on J34 of the M4 were all mentioned as 'short-term wins' that could be achieved by 2026.
