English: Now, the commission's work has already begun. I've had incredibly constructive discussions with Lord Burns about the work that's being undertaken to date by the Welsh Government and how he and his commission will take the work forward. We are examining all short-term measures that are available to alleviate congestion. I'm pleased that we are able to introduce additional patrol services and breakdown recovery services. These will not come without cost, of course; these are expensive services, but they are now tried and tested. They were deployed first on the A55 as part of the A55 resilience work, and they are now proven to work. I must add that not all of the money that was allocated to the black route is available for a road-based solution or for interventions purely on the M4 because, of course, one of the reasons why the First Minister decided not to grant the Orders was because it would have drawn capital from other vitally important social infrastructure. However, the First Minister has already been clear that the recommendations put forward by the commission will have the first call on funding set aside by the Welsh Government to resolve the issues that we see on that part of the road network. But we've also been clear with Members that those solutions must represent good value for money. It will be for the commission to consider all solutions. We will not be entertaining any pet projects, as I said in my written statement, outside of the commission's work. Whilst there will always be competing demands for funding, we are clear that delivering sustainable solutions for the significant challenges along this transport corridor is a top priority, and I can assure Members that the money spent since 2013 developing the proposals for the M4 project will not be wasted and will be put to good use by the commission, making sure that it is fully informed in terms of transport modelling, in terms of environmental surveys and all the other factors at play right across the region. I recognise that the figure attached to the development cost of the proposed black route is significant, but it does represent something in the order of just 6 per cent of the overall project cost that was estimated. And that, as I've said already in this Chamber, compares very favourably to other projects across the UK. You only need to look at development costs of projects such as HS2 to appreciate that you cannot deliver a major infrastructure project in the western world without incurring significant development costs. We've also been very clear in stressing that this project is absolutely unique in terms of the scale and in terms of the impact on the site of special scientific interest, and that, therefore, it had to be considered in its own right. Since we presented, I think, a very compelling case, there's been a declaration of a climate emergency, a greater understanding and appreciation that we need to act now, that we need to be more responsive and more responsible, and, therefore, the bar has been raised. I know that other schemes have been highlighted recently and a fear that they will be lost as a consequence of this being seen as having set a precedent. That is simply not the case; all of those programmes will go ahead. Indeed, the Caernarfon-Bontnewydd bypass is going ahead. We are proceeding with consultations on improvements to the A483 this month. Work on the Flintshire corridor of the A55/A494 will be proceeding this summer with further modelling work, Welsh transport appraisal guidance work and further consultations and meetings with local stakeholders. Other road projects across the length and breadth of Wales are still in the pipeline to be delivered, and this does not shift our position on those. We also have some incredibly exciting and bold plans for public transport here in Wales: from the £5 billion plan that we've developed, through Transport for Wales, for the new and transformational rail franchise and metro; to major legislation that will help us to re-regulate the bus network; to, of course, the biggest investment we have ever made in active travel. There is a huge amount of exciting work taking place right across Wales that I think will inspire, will encourage and will enable modal shift, which is so very important. Dirprwy Lywydd, we are committed to taking an inclusive and collaborative approach to finding innovative, affordable and sustainable solutions in the shortest possible timescale, and we look forward to working with Members and stakeholders in conjunction, of course, with the commission, to meet that need.
Welsh: Nawr, mae gwaith y comisiwn eisoes wedi dechrau. Rwyf wedi cael trafodaethau anhygoel o adeiladol gyda'r Arglwydd Burns am y gwaith sy'n cael ei wneud hyd yma gan Lywodraeth Cymru a sut y bydd ef a'i gomisiwn yn bwrw ymlaen â'r gwaith. Rydym ni'n archwilio'r holl fesurau tymor byr sydd ar gael i liniaru tagfeydd. Rwy'n falch ein bod yn gallu cyflwyno gwasanaethau patrolio ychwanegol a gwasanaethau achub cerbydau sydd wedi torri. Ni fydd y rhain yn dod heb gost, wrth gwrs; mae'r rhain yn wasanaethau drud, ond bellach maen nhw wedi'u profi. Cawsant eu defnyddio gyntaf ar y A55 yn rhan o waith cydnerthu'r A55, ac erbyn hyn profwyd eu bod yn gweithio. Rhaid imi ychwanegu nad yw'r holl arian a ddyrannwyd i'r llwybr du ar gael i greu datrysiad ar gyfer y ffordd yn unig nac ar gyfer ymyriadau ar yr M4 yn unig oherwydd, wrth gwrs, un o'r rhesymau pam y penderfynodd y Prif Weinidog beidio â rhoi'r Gorchmynion oedd oherwydd y byddai wedi sugno cyfalaf o seilweithiau cymdeithasol eraill hynod bwysig. Fodd bynnag, mae'r Prif Weinidog eisoes wedi bod yn glir y bydd yr argymhellion a gyflwynir gan y comisiwn yn cael eu blaenoriaethu o ran cyllid a neilltuir gan Lywodraeth Cymru i ddatrys y problemau a welwn ni ar y rhan honno o'r rhwydwaith ffyrdd. Ond rydym ni hefyd wedi bod yn glir gyda'r Aelodau bod yn rhaid i'r atebion hynny fod yn werth da am arian. Mater i'r comisiwn fydd ystyried pob posibilrwydd. Ni fyddwn yn ystyried unrhyw hoff brosiectau, fel y dywedais yn fy natganiad ysgrifenedig, y tu allan i waith y comisiwn. Er y bydd galwadau am gyllid yn cystadlu â'i gilydd bob amser, rydym ni'n glir bod sicrhau atebion cynaliadwy ar gyfer yr heriau sylweddol ar hyd y coridor trafnidiaeth hwn yn brif flaenoriaeth, a gallaf sicrhau Aelodau na chaiff yr arian a wariwyd ers 2013 yn datblygu'r cynigion ar gyfer prosiect yr M4 ei wastraffu ac y caiff ei ddefnyddio'n effeithiol gan y comisiwn, gan sicrhau ei fod yn gwbl wybodus o ran modelu trafnidiaeth, o ran arolygon amgylcheddol a'r holl ffactorau eraill sydd ar waith ledled y rhanbarth. Rwy'n cydnabod bod y ffigur sydd ynghlwm wrth gost datblygu'r llwybr du arfaethedig yn un sylweddol, ond mae'n cynrychioli rhywbeth fel 6 y cant yn unig o'r gost gyffredinol a amcangyfrifwyd ar gyfer y prosiect. Ac mae hynny, fel y dywedais eisoes yn y Siambr hon, yn cymharu'n ffafriol iawn â phrosiectau eraill ledled y DU. Yr unig beth sydd angen i chi ei wneud yw edrych ar gostau datblygu prosiectau fel HS2 i werthfawrogi na allwch chi gyflawni prosiect seilwaith mawr yn y byd gorllewinol heb orfod ysgwyddo costau datblygu sylweddol. Rydym ni hefyd wedi bod yn glir iawn wrth bwysleisio bod y prosiect hwn yn gwbl unigryw o ran y raddfa ac o ran yr effaith ar y safle o ddiddordeb gwyddonol arbennig, ac felly, mae'n rhaid ei ystyried ar ei ben ei hun. Ers inni gyflwyno achos grymus iawn, rwy'n credu, bu datganiad o argyfwng hinsawdd, gwell dealltwriaeth a gwerthfawrogiad bod angen inni weithredu nawr, bod angen inni fod yn fwy ymatebol ac yn fwy cyfrifol, ac, felly, mae'r disgwyliadau yn fwy. Rwy'n gwybod bod cynlluniau eraill wedi cael eu hamlygu'n ddiweddar ac mae ofn na fyddant yn gweld golau dydd o ganlyniad i'r ffaith y caiff hyn ei weld fel rhywbeth sydd wedi gosod cynsail. Nid yw hynny'n wir o gwbl; bydd y rhaglenni hynny i gyd yn mynd rhagddynt. Yn wir, mae ffordd osgoi Caernarfon-Bontnewydd yn mynd rhagddi. Rydym ni'n bwrw ymlaen ag ymgynghoriadau ar welliannau i'r A483 y mis hwn. Bydd gwaith ar goridor yr A55/A494 yn Sir y Fflint yn mynd yn ei flaen yr haf hwn gyda rhagor o waith modelu, gwaith ar ganllawiau arfarnu trafnidiaeth Cymru ac ymgynghoriadau a chyfarfodydd pellach gyda rhanddeiliaid lleol. Mae prosiectau ffyrdd eraill ar hyd a lled Cymru yn dal ar y gweill i'w darparu, ac nid yw hyn yn newid ein safbwynt ar y rheini. Mae gennym ni hefyd gynlluniau hynod o gyffrous a beiddgar ar gyfer trafnidiaeth gyhoeddus yma yng Nghymru: o'r cynllun £5 biliwn a ddatblygwyd gennym ni, drwy Trafnidiaeth Cymru, ar gyfer y fasnachfraint rheilffyrdd a'r metro newydd fydd yn trawsnewid pethau'n llwyr; i ddeddfwriaeth o bwys a fydd yn ein helpu i ail-reoleiddio'r rhwydwaith bysiau; ac, wrth gwrs, y buddsoddiad mwyaf i ni ei wneud erioed ym maes teithio llesol. Mae llawer iawn o waith cyffrous yn mynd rhagddo ledled Cymru a fydd, rwy'n credu, yn ysbrydoli, yn annog ac yn fodd i bobl newid sut maen nhw'n teithio, sydd mor bwysig. Dirprwy Lywydd, rydym ni wedi ymrwymo i fynd ati mewn modd cynhwysol a chydweithredol er mwyn canfod atebion arloesol, fforddiadwy a chynaliadwy yn yr amser byrraf posib, ac edrychwn ymlaen at weithio gydag Aelodau a rhanddeiliaid ar y cyd, wrth gwrs, â'r comisiwn, i ddiwallu'r angen hwnnw.
