More street-sweepers, new council houses and fixed roads: What the Liberal Democrats plan to do for Cardiff if they get into power

Ahead of the council elections on May 5, Cardiff's Liberal Democrats have released a manifesto promising more street sweepers, electric charging points and to repair the city's streets with a programme to "fix crumbling roads, pavements and footpaths". The party also promises to build an extra 3,000 council homes in the next decade.

Other pledges include limiting any council tax rises over the lifetime of the next council term to below the Welsh average, supporting vulnerable adults and children and reviewing the current deal with GLL/Better, who run the city's leisure centres, to "ensure that every community is getting the services they need".

In 2017, the Lib Dems won 11 seats, a loss of six on the election before. The ruling party was Labour which took 40 seats, it now has 39 seats. The Conservatives had 20 and now have 21. You can see all our election coverage ahead of May's election here .
