The old coal yard; where the student flats were going to be built.<\/figcaption><\/figure><br \/>\nRESIDENTS have called for land in Gabalfa which had been earmarked for student flats to be bought in preparation for a railway station.<br \/>\nThe flats, on the old coal yard site off Mynachdy Road, were originally opposed by residents and councillors because of concerns of noise and parking.<br \/>\nMederco, a construction company, which bought the land and got planning permission to build 360 flats, went into administration in January and the land has been put for sale by the administrators.<br \/>\nNow residents want it to be used as a station for Gabalfa as part of the Welsh Government and Transport for Wales&#8217; promise to deliver a metro service between 2023 and 2028.<br \/>\nThe station will be one of the new metro stations built in Cardiff where a tram-train system has been proposed.<br \/>\nIain Claridge, who lives on Newfoundland Road, said: \u201cMynachdy was Cardiff\u2019s first council housing estate, to build houses for working classes after the First World War.<br \/>\n\u201cThe land was to be used for the purpose of housing \u2013 not to build speculative flats for students.\u201d<br \/>\nA petition of over 350 signatures urges the council to use it for council housing and a metro station.<br \/>\nMr Claridge added: \u201cDespite the petition and ignoring the council\u2019s Local Development Plan, stipulating strategic sites for metro stations, planning permission was granted to Mederco.\u201d<br \/>\nThe land at the old coal yard, where the flats were proposed to be built, has now been put up for sale by administrators.<br \/>\nThe building company got planning permission from the council early last year \u2013 under which Merderco were obliged to build a new community centre.<br \/>\nLast month, local residents applied to obtain the community centre from the council \u2013 which has had the \u201cfull support\u201d of the local MP, AM, and local councillors.<br \/>\nAnna McMorrin, MP for Cardiff North, has said: \u201cIt\u2019s unfortunate that Mederco won\u2019t be able to fulfil their obligation to build a brand-new community centre for local residents.<br \/>\n\u201cHowever, the uncertainty surrounding the development presents an opportunity to reconsider the land as a potential site for the metro, which could bring considerable benefits.<br \/>\n\u201cA Gabalfa station would facilitate much-needed regeneration and maximise the future prosperity of local communities.<br \/>\n\u201cI, along with Julie Morgan AM and local councillors, have called on the council to ring fence the site and to resist any further development that may compromise the future delivery of the metro route.\u201d<br \/>\n<figure id=\"attachment_35574\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-35574\" style=\"width: 471px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\"

area lost the bus route serving it, it has become an isolated community.<br \/>\n\u201cIt would help make that connection for residents and students in nearby Talybont, to the hospital and town.<br
