(18 December 2024)

Question Asked

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, if she will make an asssessment of the potential merits of identifying a National Freight Network.

Asked by:
Mike Reader (Labour)

Answer

The UK has a complex national freight system handling millions of transactions every day. The merits of increasing our understanding of this system to inform policy making, regulation and investment interventions are well understood, and this Government is improving its data and analytical capabilities to do so. This will enable stronger interventions, including those that may be delivered through spatial corridor and network approaches.
