But aren't the roots apart of the PNS (roots of the spinal nerve)?

Is the cauda equina part of the CNS or PNS?
(It is still surrounded by the meninges...)
Thanks in advance,

Well, I think you've answered your own question ("surrounded by the
meninges"). The cauda equina consists of the dorsal and ventral
roots of the lumbar and sacral segments.
