English: And any fit-for-purpose transport network must put their needs at the forefront of planned improvements. It's for this reason that I was pleased to hear in the Chamber last week that the £2.9 million annual funding subsidies for flights from Anglesey will be diverted to invest in public transport in north Wales, and the region will be made a priority for the 197 trains, which are much needed. As we have seen from the overcrowding, two carriages are just not enough for the north Wales line. I very much welcome these planned improvements, which will work alongside already existing initiatives. The Sherpa bus service of Snowdonia has seen 9 per cent growth and 27 per cent increase in revenue, tackling congestion in Gwynedd. There are free bus passes for anyone over 60 years of age, which is much welcomed. Mytravelpass is available for 16 to 21-year-olds, with discounts of 30 per cent - great for university students - and Welsh Government have funded, through Transport for Wales, six Fflecsi bus services, where residents can book by app or phone, and this trial is proving highly popular. I was also lifted by a recent meeting, which was on the train, on Monday, that I attended, about the work taking place with Transport for Wales, and perhaps this needs to be more widely promoted and published so that everybody knows what work is actually happening. Some great initiatives are being funded through Welsh Government and Transport for Wales, working with operators, such as the 1Bws ticket. Innovation will link buses with rail on a single ticket, which will allow passengers to pay as they go, and there's already a pilot in north Wales to trial tap-on and tap-off technology. Investment will also be taking place in three major schemes: in Bangor parkway, Holyhead parkway and Wrexham gateway. So, we can see that the vision is in place, studies are being done, and the Welsh Government are providing funding. What is required now is adequate investment from the UK Government. We should, of course, have received our fair share of HS2 consequential funding of £5 billion, but, as we know, the Tories have sold our communities short once again, and the £5 billion has not been forthcoming. To have a fit-for-purpose transport network, we need proper funding from the UK Government. If we are to cope with the cost-of-living crisis and the climate emergency, that investment is needed as a matter of urgency, and I hope they will support the next levelling-up funding bid, because the first one they didn't support, which was much needed. And I also ask that capital funding gets made available to invest in highway maintenance, because you can see roads deteriorating right across the UK, not just in Wales, following 10 years of austerity by the UK Government impacting on highway maintenance, and there's an 11 per cent cut in capital funding coming to Welsh Government. I am pleased, though, that, instead of building new roads, money will be diverted to the maintenance of existing highways, which is much needed. Diolch.
Welsh: Ac mae'n rhaid i unrhyw rwydwaith trafnidiaeth sy'n addas i'r diben flaenoriaethu eu hanghenion hwy mewn perthynas ag unrhyw welliannau arfaethedig. Am y rheswm hwn, roeddwn yn falch o glywed yn y Siambr yr wythnos diwethaf y bydd y cymorthdaliadau cyllidol blynyddol o £2.9 miliwn ar gyfer hediadau o Ynys Môn yn cael eu dargyfeirio i fuddsoddi mewn trafnidiaeth gyhoeddus yng ngogledd Cymru, a bydd y rhanbarth yn cael ei wneud yn flaenoriaeth ar gyfer y 197 o drenau y mae mawr eu hangen. Fel y gwelsom o'r cerbydau gorlawn, nid yw dau gerbyd yn ddigon ar gyfer rheilffordd gogledd Cymru. Rwy'n croesawu'r gwelliannau arfaethedig hyn, a fydd yn gweithio ochr yn ochr â mentrau sydd eisoes yn bodoli. Mae gwasanaeth bws Sherpa yn Eryri wedi gweld twf o 9 y cant a chynnydd o 27 y cant yn ei refeniw, gan fynd i'r afael â thagfeydd yng Ngwynedd. Ceir tocynnau bws am ddim i unrhyw un dros 60 oed, ac mae hynny i'w groesawu'n fawr. Mae fyngherdynteithio ar gael i bobl ifanc 16 i 21 oed, gyda gostyngiadau o 30 y cant - gwych i fyfyrwyr prifysgol - ac mae Llywodraeth Cymru wedi ariannu, drwy Trafnidiaeth Cymru, chwe gwasanaeth bws Fflecsi, lle y gall trigolion drefnu drwy ap neu dros y ffôn, ac mae'r treial hwn yn boblogaidd iawn. Cefais fy nghalonogi hefyd gan gyfarfod diweddar y bûm iddo, a oedd ar y trên, ddydd Llun, ar y gwaith sy'n mynd rhagddo gyda Trafnidiaeth Cymru, ac efallai bod angen hyrwyddo a rhoi mwy o gyhoeddusrwydd i hyn fel bod pawb yn ymwybodol o'r gwaith sy'n mynd rhagddo. Mae mentrau gwych yn cael eu hariannu drwy Lywodraeth Cymru a Trafnidiaeth Cymru, gan weithio gyda gweithredwyr, megis tocyn 1Bws. Bydd arloesi'n cysylltu bysiau â threnau gydag un tocyn a fydd yn caniatáu i deithwyr dalu wrth fynd, ac mae cynllun peilot eisoes ar waith yn y gogledd i dreialu technoleg tapio unwaith, tapio eilwaith. Bydd buddsoddiad hefyd yn cael ei wneud mewn tri chynllun mawr: ym mharcffordd Bangor, parcffordd Caergybi a phorth Wrecsam. Felly, gallwn weld bod y weledigaeth yn ei lle, mae astudiaethau'n cael eu cynnal, ac mae Llywodraeth Cymru yn darparu cyllid. Yr hyn sydd ei angen yn awr yw buddsoddiad digonol gan Lywodraeth y DU. Wrth gwrs, dylem fod wedi cael ein cyfran deg o £5 biliwn o gyllid canlyniadol yn sgil HS2, ond fel y gwyddom, mae'r Torïaid wedi gwneud tro gwael â'n cymunedau unwaith eto, ac nid yw'r £5 biliwn wedi dod. Er mwyn cael rhwydwaith trafnidiaeth sy'n addas i'r diben, mae angen cyllid priodol arnom gan Lywodraeth y DU. Os ydym am ymdopi â'r argyfwng costau byw a'r argyfwng hinsawdd, mae angen y buddsoddiad hwnnw ar fyrder, ac rwy'n gobeithio y byddant yn cefnogi'r cais nesaf am gyllid ffyniant bro, gan na wnaethant gefnogi'r cyntaf, er bod ei angen yn fawr. Ac rwy'n gofyn hefyd i gyllid cyfalaf fod ar gael i fuddsoddi mewn gwaith cynnal a chadw priffyrdd, gan y gallwch weld ffyrdd yn dirywio ledled y DU, nid yn unig yng Nghymru, yn dilyn effaith 10 mlynedd o gyni gan Lywodraeth y DU ar waith cynnal a chadw priffyrdd, ac mae Llywodraeth Cymru ar fin cael toriad cyllid o 11 y cant. Serch hynny, yn lle cael ei ddefnyddio i adeiladu ffyrdd newydd, rwy'n falch y bydd arian yn cael ei ddargyfeirio i gynnal a chadw'r priffyrdd presennol, sy'n rhywbeth mawr ei angen. Diolch.
