The Metro and Beyond: Leadership, Persistence and What's Next for Wales

Y Metro a thu hwnt: Arweinyddiaeth, dyfalbarhad a’r hyn sydd nesaf i Gymru
About this Event

The South Wales Metro has been one of Wales' most ambitious infrastructure projects, but the real story is not just how it was delivered, it's what comes next.

While much of the Metro's history and development journey has been documented elsewhere, Prof Mark Barry will draw on more than a decade of experience championing the vision to reflect on the leadership, persistence and coalition-building required to drive major change, before exploring the opportunities and challenges that lie ahead for Wales.

This session will move beyond the Metro's origin story to consider how improved connectivity, transit-oriented development and integrated transport networks can support productivity, investment, place-making and long-term economic growth across Wales.

For those interested in the history of the South Wales Metro and Cardiff Capital Region Metro, further background information is available via Mark Barry's Metro story resource. - https://cardiffmetro.wales/

Manylion y digwyddiad

Mae Metro De Cymru wedi bod yn un o brosiectau seilwaith mwyaf uchelgeisiol Cymru, ond nid y stori go iawn yw sut y cafodd ei gyflawni, ond yn hytrach yr hyn a ddaw nesaf.

Er bod llawer o hanes a datblygiad y Metro wedi'i ddogfennu mewn lleoedd eraill, bydd yr Athro Mark Barry yn defnyddio degawd o brofiad yn hyrwyddo'r weledigaeth er mwyn myfyrio ar yr arweinyddiaeth, y dyfalbarhad a'r cynghreirio sydd ei angen i yrru newidiadau o bwys yn eu blaenau, cyn trafod y cyfleoedd a'r heriau sydd o'n blaenau yng Nghymru.

Bydd y sesiwn hon yn symud y tu hwnt i darddiad y Metro i ystyried sut y gall gwell cysylltedd, datblygu trafnidiaeth a rhwydweithiau trafnidiaeth integredig gefnogi cynhyrchiant, buddsoddiadau, creu lleoedd a thwf economaidd hirdymor ledled Cymru.


I'r rheini sydd â diddordeb yn hanes Metro De Cymru a Metro Prifddinas-Ranbarth Caerdydd, mae rhagor o wybodaeth gefndir ar gael yn adnodd hanes Metro Mark Barry. - https://cardiffmetro.wales/
