The Manifesto for Infrastructure in Wales 2016: Prosperity, Growth and Jobs recommendations respond to a number of issues Wales will face over the next few years, including a growing population and more extreme weather conditions due to climate change.
The Manifesto features key recommendations for the next Assembly term centred on improving resilience, skills and infrastructure delivery.
