    6 March 2018 Dear , ATISN 12136: The Signal Box Gellilydan Clearance Thank you for your request which I received on 1 March 2018. You asked for the following information in relation to clearance work at the old goods yard known as The Signal Box Gellilydan, Maentwrog Road, Blaenau Ffestiniog, Gwynedd, Wales, LL41 4RB: All communications from members of the public in relation to this work. All communications between bodies including but not limited to Network Rail, The Trawsfynydd Railway Co, Welsh Assembly Government, Gwynedd Council, The Snowdonia National Park Authority, Natural Resources Wales, the Health and Safety Executive, Local Town and District Councils and the Police. Your request specified that you were seeking all such communications from 1 January 2016 to the present. Following a search of our paper and electronic records, I have established that the information you require is not held by the Welsh Government. This work does not fall within a policy area of Welsh Government, and Welsh Government has not been involved in discussions regarding this work. I have established from press reports that this relates to a licence agreement entered into between Network Rail and the Trawsfynydd Railway Company that was subsequently withdrawn by Network Rail. Network Rail became subject to the Freedom of Information Act and Environmental Information Regulations in June 2015. You may therefore wish to send your request to Network Rail, who may have information within scope of this request. You may send a request to Network Rail at: [email protected] Or by post to: Network Rail Freedom of Information 1st Floor Willen, Area C The Quadrant Elder Gate Milton Keynes MK9 1EN If you are dissatisfied with the Welsh Government’s handling of your request, you can ask for an internal review within 40 working days of the date of this response.

  • Lôn Las Cefni
    Itineraries - Lôn Las Cefni Grid Reference: SH 422 656 – SH 430 770 – SH 451 782 Lôn Las Cefni Cycleway ~ All day or more A 14 mile off-road cycleway/footpath traversing beautiful countryside from Llyn Cefni and the Dingle woodland Nature Reserve, through Malltraeth Marsh RSPB wetland reserve, past Malltraeth Estuary and then through Newborough Forest. The cycleway can be entered at several points: Llyn Cefni Two free car parks at either end of the lake with picnic tables. Circular walk around the lake 3.5 miles. Cycle path linking the two car parks along the south side but not complete along the north 2 miles. The cycle path links south to the Dingle Nature Reserve, Llangefni and beyond. Views across the lake. Excellent for wildfowl especially in the winter. Dingle Woodland Nature Reserve Two large pay and display car parks. A mile of woodland walks along the banks of the Afon Cefni. Woodland and river birds. The cyclepath traverses the centre of Llangefni, Anglesey’s County Town. Malltraeth Marsh From the lower end of the Bryn Cefni Industrial Estate, the cyclepath follows the banks of the Afon Cefni for some 5.5 miles to Malltraeth. The path passes underneath the A55 dual carriageway and across the old A5. For the most part, the route sits on the raised floodbanks of the canalised Afon Cefni. It affords fine views across the marsh, with an especially interesting section being the 2 miles south west from the A5 overlooking the RSPB’s large reedbed and wetland reserve. The flat, former estuary is an unusual landscape feature in this part of the country.
