A petition calling for investment to be made in a town centre improvement scheme for Fishguard, including pedestrian and traffic management measures, is now being taken forward by the National Assembly's Petitions Committee. At their latest meeting, it was agreed that the Committee would write to the Minister for Economy, Science and Transport highlighting the local authority's concerns about the link road scheme. The Committee has also agreed to write to the Minister for Housing and Regeneration to ask how the new regeneration framework will assist with bringing forward improvements.

Mr Davies said: "I am delighted that the Assembly's Petition Committee has agreed to take some action in relation to the town centre improvement scheme for Fishguard. This is an important step forward. This scheme will ensure that pedestrians are able to shop safely as sadly at present, many of the roads and pavements in the town centre are not fit for purpose. In the meantime, I will continue to highlight this issue at every available opportunity as this is of huge importance to the people of Fishguard."
