The Welsh Government has been urged to consider proposals to create a motorway linking north and south Wales. At present, going from one end to the other of Wales takes more than four hours by car. Motorists wanting to make the journey face the option of a stop-start journey on country roads - or driving eastward into England and using the M5.
However, the Tories reckon Mark Drakeford's administration should give some serious thought about constructing a motorway from north to south - despite the huge costs to build it and the environmental impact.
Aberconwy MS Janet Finch-Saunders said that she was open to different options about the route - including along the border or down the centre of the country on a similar route to the A470. She added that currently people in Conwy face four to five hour road trips to reach Cardiff.
