The scheme, which aims to modernise and relieve pressure on the stretch, will see increased capacity on the existing A548, with a new road linking the A55 and A548 just after the Flintshire Bridge. It forms part of over £650m of Welsh Government infrastructure improvements in North Wales, with Deeside in particular benefiting from unprecedented Welsh Government investment.    


 Economy and Infrastructure Secretary Ken Skates said:

   


 
> “I’m delighted to announce the red route as my preferred option to address the congestion problem in the Deeside Corridor, A55/A494/A548, area.
> 
>    
> 
> 
>  “Having taken full account of the technical, social, economic and environmental aspects of the scheme and listened to the consultation responses, I’m confident that this significant investment will address the existing problems and compliment improvements across the Deeside area. 
> 
>    
> 
> 
>  “The next steps will be to develop a preliminary design, which considers the environmental and engineering issues in more detail and looks to address some of the issues raised during the consultation. 
>

> 
>  “I’m hopeful that this can all be completed quickly, with businesses and commuters feeling the benefit of this project at the earliest opportunity, strengthening the social and economic links across North Wales, the Deeside Industrial Estate, Chester and beyond in the process.”

   


 The Economy Secretary also announced he would be progressing the delivery of the A494 River Dee Bridge Improvement scheme to investigate options to resolve the existing traffic bottleneck and overcome issues with the existing bridge. 

 On rail connectivity he said he would be commissioning further work with Network Rail on a new Deeside Parkway and the co\-location of Shotton High at Shotton Low at a new integrated station. This would enable a seamless interchange for passengers wanting to change between the Wrexham – Bidston line and the North Wales Coast mainline. 

 In conjunction with Flintshire Council and Network Rail we will develop a scheme for a new Deeside Parkway station  to improve access to the business park, including the introduction of park and ride provision. Facilities for road freight traffic will also be considered. 

   


 This builds on the over  £1m awarded to Flintshire Council in March to improve bus services and encourage walking and cycling in Deeside. Part of this money will be spent on developing bus interchanges, bus priority measures on the B5129 Shotton Corridor and bus infrastructure on Deeside Business Park, while the remainder will support the introduction of active travel routes within the Deeside Business Park. 

   


 This is all in addition further investment of £4\.7m to support the Northern Gateway and continue with building additional road infrastructure to open land for development and attract further businesses to locate at the site. 

   


 He said

  
> “The investment and initiatives I have outlined will go a long way to address the barriers to accessing jobs in the Deeside Hub. They will also form one of the building blocks that will deliver a North East Wales Metro vision of a well\-connected and high quality integrated transport system, which maximises active travel opportunities, something which will provide huge benefits for the region.”

Amcan y cynllun yw moderneiddio a lleddfu'r traffig ar yr A548\.  Bydd yn cynyddu capasiti'r rhan hon o'r ffordd ac yn golygu adeiladu ffordd newydd i gysylltu'r A55 a'r A548 ychydig heibio Pont Sir y Fflint. Mae'n rhan o'r gwerth £650m o welliannau y mae Llywodraeth Cymru yn eu gwneud i seilwaith y Gogledd, a bydd Glannau Dyfrdwy yn arbennig yn elwa ar y lefel ddigynsail o fuddsoddi gan Lywodraeth Cymru.    


 Dywedodd Ysgrifennydd yr Economi a'r Seilwaith, Ken Skates:

   


 
> "Mae'n bleser gen i gyhoeddi mai'r llwybr coch yw'r opsiwn rwy'n ei ffafrio i ddatrys problem y tagfeydd ar yr A55/A494/A548 yn ardal Coridor Glannau Dyfrdwy.

>    
> 
> 
>  "Ar ôl ystyried yr holl agweddau technegol, cymdeithasol, economaidd ac amgylcheddol a gwrando ar yr ymatebion i'r ymgynghoriad, rwy'n ffyddiog y gwnaiff y buddsoddiad sylweddol hwn fynd i'r afael â'r problemau ac ategu'r gwelliannau eraill yn ardal Glannau Dyfrdwy.  
> 
>    
> 
> 
>  "Y cam nesaf yw creu dyluniad cychwynnol sy'n rhoi ystyriaeth fanylach i'r problemau amgylcheddol a pheirianyddol ac sy'n edrych ar sut i ddatrys rhai o'r problemau godwyd yn yr ymgynghoriad. 
> 
>    
> 
> 
>  "Rwy'n gobeithio y caiff yr agwedd hon ar y gwaith ei chwblhau'n gyflym fel bod busnesau a chymudwyr fel ei gilydd yn cael gweld manteision y prosiect yn fuan, gan gryfhau yr un pryd y cysylltiadau cymdeithasol ac economaidd ar draws Gogledd Cymru, Ystad Ddiwydiannol Glannau Dyfrdwy, Caer a thu hwnt."

   


 Dywedodd Ysgrifennydd yr Economi hefyd y byddai'n bwrw ymlaen â chynllun Gwella A494 Pont Afon Ddyfrdwy er mwyn ystyried yr opsiynau ar gyfer mynd i'r afael â mater y tagfeydd a datrys problemau'r bont bresennol. 

   


 O ran y rheilffyrdd, dywedodd y byddai'n comisiynu rhagor o waith ar orsaf newydd yn Parkway Glannau Dyfrdwy ac ar gyd\-leoli Gorsaf Uchaf Shotton a Gorsaf Isaf Shotton i greu gorsaf integredig. Byddai hynny'n creu cyfnewidfa hwylus i deithwyr sydd am newid rhwng lein Wrecsam \- Bidston a phrif lein Arfordir y Gogledd. 

   


 Mewn cydweithrediad â Chyngor Sir y Fflint a Network Rail, byddwn yn datblygu cynllun ar gyfer gorsaf newydd Parkway Glannau Dyfrdwy i wella'r cysylltiadau â'r parc busnes, gan gynnwys darparu gwasanaeth parcio a theithio. Ystyrir hefyd cyfleusterau ar gyfer traffig cludo nwyddau ar y ffyrdd. 

   


 Mae yn hyn ychwanegol at y £1m a mwy a roddwyd i Gyngor Sir y Fflint ym mis Mawrth i wella gwasanaethau bws ac annog pobl i gerdded a beicio yng Nglannau Dyfrdwy. Caiff cyfran o'r arian ei wario ar ddatblygu cyfnewidfeydd bysiau, mesurau blaenoriaethu bysiau ar Goridor y B5129 yn Shotton a seilwaith ar gyfer bysiau ym Mharc Busnes Glannau Dyfrdwy.  Caiff y gweddill ei ddefnyddio i ddatblygu llwybrau teithio llesol ym Mharc Busnes Glannau Dyfrdwy. 

   


 Mae hyn oll yn ychwanegol at y buddsoddiad o £4\.7m i gefnogi Porth y Gogledd ac i barhau â'r gwaith o adeiladu seilwaith ffyrdd ychwanegol er mwyn gallu datblygu tir a denu rhagor o fusnesau i'r safle. 

   


 Meddai

  
> "Bydd yr arian a'r mentrau hyn yn hwb mawr i chwalu'r hyn sy'n rhwystro pobl rhag gallu manteisio ar y swyddi yn Hyb Glannau Dyfrdwy. Bydd yn un rhan o'r weledigaeth ar gyfer Metro'r Gogledd Ddwyrain, sef system drafnidiaeth integredig o ansawdd uchel a chysylltiedig fydd yn cynnig cyfleoedd da ar gyfer teithio llesol ac yn dod â manteision mawr i'r rhanbarth."
