Cargo Road
Cargo Road
Cardiff Docks, Cardiff, Wales
Cargo Road is one of the access roads through the Port of Cardiff, leading to the warehouses at the western end opposite Cardiff Bay.
Though the road is still private, the adjacent Locks Road has now been opened to the public (see the sign), and this enables you to take close photos of the warehouses through the fence, and of the nearby wastegrounds.
