Work on re-building the Quadrant bus station has always relied on Assembly transport grant from the moment that the previous Labour Administration conceived the idea. It should be no surprise to anybody, least of all local AM and Transport Minister, Andrew Davies, that the moment has now come to put the Assembly Government's cash where his mouth is.
This is a major plank in the regeneration of the City Centre. Enough money has gone into other, mostly Labour, areas such as Rhondda Cynon Taf. As a Swansea AM, Andrew Davies needs to ensure that his home city starts to get its fair share. It would be about time.
