if it's about Cardiff.. Sport, Entertainment, Transportation, Business, Development Projects, Leisure, Eating, Drinking, Nightlife, Shopping, Train Spotting! etc.. then we want it here!
I walked past yesterday and there were a number of workers (about 10) clearing debris, removing fencing and doing general work at the Ely bridge end of the old Arjo Wiggins paper mill site.
A recent planning application to install a new access road to the development here was accepted a few months ago - are we about to finally see this site starting?

Just to add a bit more to my earlier post - this portion of the site has had some additional fencing added and there are earth movers, portakabins and storage containers so safe to say this is definitely starting!
I will try and get a photo tonight

More activity on site as a large number of trees have been cleared around the waters edge and the railway line... Still nothing in terms of houses or even roads built yet though!

It sounds like basic site clearance. It could be a sign that serious work is set to begin this spring, There've been a lot of false starts with this one though.
I hope it comes off - there's an awful lot of pent-up demand for housing in the city's inner west. It's a popular area and it needs affordable housing to keep the social mix that's part of its appeal.
