Builth Road Station Sign age

[merlodlliw]

I complained to WG via A.Ms about the temporary signage being removed off the new main roads being built in September, hence people could not find the station, I was aware of this fact when people due to travel up North after attending an event at The Royal Welsh Showground got lost trying to find the station & missed the train. A positive response did come from Carl Sargent the Minister(put up on RF) on the same day I travelled this road home to Wrexham & could not have found the Station due to traffic diversions,even though I know the area well.

Yesterday the new by pass opened, on TV I saw huge sign age with directions to Builth Rd Station, I hope my effort assisted.

I can not find a link.

The same roadscheme has cost £51 million and was claimed to be delivered on time and budget yet the press release announcing its construction in Dec 09 said it was a £35 million project. I can only conclude that Bob has managed to get £16 million road sign installed.
