PARLIAMENTARY WRITTEN QUESTION
Railways: East Midlands (7 October 2024)

Question Asked

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, if she will review the re-opening of the Northampton to Market Harborough railway line.

Asked by:
Mike Reader (Labour)

Answer

The Government believes that local transport authorities and local leaders are best placed to prioritise and take forward transport projects which are most appropriate for the areas they serve, particularly where they will support economic growth, job creation, more and better housing, and, ultimately, demonstrate a good business case. I would encourage him to continue to engage with local stakeholders further on this.
