00:00The South Wales Metro is supposed to totally revolutionise transport around Cardiff and
00:06the greater South Wales area, and that includes everything from improved buses to trains and
00:12the tram system.
00:15The latest images of the tram route have been released and show what it could look like
00:18when it's finished sometime around 2029 according to the council.
00:24Cardiff Council and Transport for Wales are working together on the project which will
00:28connect the north-west of the city to parts of the centre of Cardiff, to the Bay area
00:32along and across to Newport Road via the docks.
00:35It's aimed at easing some transport links and bringing more people to Cardiff Bay.
00:41Councillor Dan Dayath says that subject to funding, it will join up to the proposed Cardiff
00:45Parkway station in the east of the city, with the first phase connecting the city centre
00:50to the Bay.
00:51It will be called the Cardiff Crossrail, with funding already secured for the first phase
00:56of the plans.
