Lee Waters hopes there will be no more big projects like the current Heads of the Valleys roadworks.

"One of their proposals is turning an existing main road and having a bus corridor, an active travel corridor and a road corridor side-by-side," he said.

"So you're still building roads but you're building a road which is designed to do something different."So when you're making that decision, 'how do I get to work?', you don't automatically think I have to jump in the car, because I couldn't get there otherwise. That's the reality we have to shift." Economy Minister Vaughan Gething has made more positive noises about the impact of the work on the A465 this week.

He told BBC Wales the road "opened up significant economic development opportunities for valleys communities". "And we've recognised in the government's response to the review, that we want to make sure that economic development can still take place in different parts of Wales," he added.
