    CARDIFF COUNTY COUNCIL DINAS A SIR CAERDYDD EXECUTIVE BUSINESS MEETING: 22 JULY 2004 REPLACEMENT OF HERBERT ST BRIDGE AND POSSIBLE PUBLIC TRANSPORT LINKS BETWEEN CARDIFF BAY AND THE CITY CENTRE AGENDA ITEM: 10 Reasons for the Report 1. The Council wishes to enable the Lloyd George/Callaghan Square development to be completed, together with the associated comprehensive urban design package and fixed transport link between Cardiff Bay and the City Centre. This report examines the options available to achieve this end. Background 2. This report examines the options available to achieve completion of the Lloyd George Avenue/Callaghan Square development scheme, whilst seeking to enhance transport links to the city centre and providing the scheme design package element agreed between the former Cardiff Bay Development Corporation and the then Cardiff City Council. The Issues 3. The original concept agreed between Cardiff Bay Development Corporation and the Council’s predecessor authority in 1987 was for a comprehensive urban design package for Lloyd George Avenue and Callaghan Square incorporating new public squares, a linear park, other recreational facilities (made possible by the removal of the heavy rail embankment fronting Bute Street) and a light rail link to the city centre replacing the current heavy rail link. 4. The Scheme was to be progressed in two phases. Phase 1 works, comprising part of Callaghan Square, the road infrastructure and the Flourish have been completed. Phase 2, comprising the completion of the Square, and the removal of the heavy rail embankment to enable the linear park to be created, was subject to legal procedures with possible uncertain outcomes.
