A councillor has called the impact of maintenance work on a popular shared cycle and pedestrian way in Cardiff "frustrating and disappointing". The shared path which emerges from underneath the railway bridge on to Taffs Mead Embankment in Grangetown has been narrowed due to maintenance work which is being carried out by the National Grid.
One of Cardiff council's ward members for Grangetown, Cllr Ash Lister, has spoken out on the matter and stressed the importance of the work being carried out with consideration for those who use the trail. The National Grid, which is carrying out underground cable installation works, has apologised for any inconvenience caused.
Cllr Ashley Lister said: "It’s frustrating and disappointing to see further works impacting access to this section of the Taff Trail for both Grangetown residents and those who use the trail for leisure or commuting. Whilst I completely appreciate the need for the works to be carried out in the area, it is important that this is done with proper care and consideration for those who use the trail.
