Good to see some movement on the arena, and with timelines in next year for planning too.

I'd like to see a direct Cardiff Central to Cardiff Bay train/tram linked to this.

Very much re-invigorating the Cardiff Bay appeal. Then there's the future of the motorpoint arena or probably the plot - can't think what the existing structure could be used as (could it be expanded in some way to be specifically a conference venue - maybe not). Hopefully 2 reasons to be cheerful! Let's hope we get significant progress on this next year - what's the latest on Bristols arena ambitions? They'll be loving this over the channel!!
