Janet Finch-Saunders, the Member of the Welsh Parliament for Bangor Conwy Môn, was delighted to attend the grand opening of Lôn yr Adar, the new walking and cycling path from Llandudno Junction to Glan Conwy.
This path, which took 22 years to come to fruition, will enable cyclists, pedestrians, pushchair and wheelchair users to travel safely between the two areas.
Janet commented:
“It was a pleasure to attend the official opening of Lôn yr Adar. This is a wonderful example of civil engineering. I would like to thank Andrew Wilkinson and the team, as well as Jennings, for their brilliant work.
“When I first started working on this project as a Cabinet Member on Conwy County Borough Council in 2004, I was told it could never be done. I have never taken no for an answer and have been proud to work hard with my office team, coordinating meetings with all relevant stakeholders very regularly over many years.
“I am grateful that Andrew and his team were given the freedom to pursue this grant funding, of which £18 million came from the former Conservative UK Government.
“The opening was a wonderful event, and I would like to thank everyone who was involved in putting it together.”

Roedd Janet Finch-Saunders, AS Bangor Conwy Môn, yn falch iawn o fynychu agoriad mawreddog Lôn yr Adar, y llwybr cerdded a beicio newydd o Gyffordd Llandudno i Lan Conwy.
Bydd y llwybr hwn, a gymerodd 22 mlynedd i’w gwblhau, yn galluogi beicwyr, cerddwyr a defnyddwyr cadeiriau gwthio a chadeiriau olwyn i deithio'n ddiogel rhwng y ddwy ardal.
Dywedodd Janet:
"Pleser oedd mynychu agoriad swyddogol Lôn yr Adar. Mae’n enghraifft wych o beirianneg sifil. Hoffwn ddiolch i Andrew Wilkinson a'r tîm, yn ogystal â Jennings, am eu gwaith gwych.
"Pan ddechreuais weithio ar y prosiect hwn fel Aelod Cabinet ar Gyngor Bwrdeistref Sirol Conwy yn 2004, dywedwyd wrthyf na ellid byth ei gyflawni. Dydw i erioed wedi derbyn na fel ateb ac wedi bod yn falch o weithio'n galed gyda thîm fy swyddfa, gan gydlynu cyfarfodydd gyda'r holl randdeiliaid perthnasol yn rheolaidd iawn dros nifer o flynyddoedd.
"Rwy'n ddiolchgar bod Andrew a'i dîm wedi cael y rhyddid i fynd ar drywydd y cyllid grant hwn, a daeth £18 miliwn ohono gan gyn-Lywodraeth Geidwadol y DU.
"Roedd yr agoriad yn ddigwyddiad gwych, a hoffwn ddiolch i bawb a fu'n rhan o’r trefnu.”
