Question to the Department for Transport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, whether she has made an assessment of the potential merits of constructing a direct rail link to Cardiff Airport.

The Wales Rail Board is responsible for assessing and recommending rail investments to support new and improved services in Wales. The approach of the Board is to promote improvements to services on the Vale of Glamorgan line, including to Rhoose, where there is an effective integrated bus link to Cardiff Airport.
