A55 roundabouts

12 April 2022

Dear                  ,

ATISN 16124

I wrote to you on 7 March regarding your request for information regarding the potential scrapping of A55 roundabout removal plans. I apologise for the delay in responding to you.

Information requested

You asked:

1. How much money the Welsh Government has spent on the roundabout removal project in total

2. How much money the Welsh Government has spent on consultation fees regarding this project (i.e. - getting artist impressions done)

Our Response

I can confirm the Welsh Government holds information captured by your request.

For question one, I can confirm that £8.9 million of Welsh Government funding has been spent on the project in total.

For question two, costs purely attributed to consultation come to £207k.

Next steps

If you are dissatisfied with the Welsh Government’s handling of your request, you can ask for an internal review within 40 working days of the date of this response. Requests for an internal review should be addressed to the Welsh Government’s Freedom of Information Officer at:

Information Rights Unit, 
Welsh Government,
Cathays Park, 
Cardiff, 
CF10 3NQ 
or Email: Freedom.ofinformation@gov.wales

Please remember to quote the ATISN reference number above.

You also have the right to complain to the Information Commissioner. The Information Commissioner can be contacted at:

Information Commissioner’s Office, 
Wycliffe House, 
Water Lane, 
Wilmslow, 
Cheshire, 
SK9 5AF

However, please note that the Commissioner will not normally investigate a complaint until it has been through our own internal review process.

Yours sincerely
