Lloyd George Avenue

The site of the avenue had been known as Collingdon Road, which was described as a "grimy industrial area of small factories and workshops, employing hundreds of people".

Due to high costs, the LRT element of the project was abandoned, but a new road was built as part of a £120 million PFI scheme[2][3] awarded to a consortium of investors and shareholders named City Link.

[4] After the wind-up of the CBDC in March 2000, all property rights and liabilities for the Bute Avenue project transferred to the Welsh Development Agency.

This includes the 350 neighbouring homes, some shops, commercial development and a small section of new road surrounding Callaghan Square.

[4] Although officials from the Welsh Development Agency and the City and County of Cardiff have examined various options for the completion of the original boulevard scheme,[5] as of 2011 no progress has been made.
