PARLIAMENTARY WRITTEN QUESTION
Great Western Main Line: Electrification (22 October 2015)

Question Asked

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, when he plans for the electrification of the Great Western Mainline to be completed.

Asked by:
Jonathan Reynolds (Labour)

Answer

The Secretary of State announced in June that Sir Peter Hendy, the new Chair of Network Rail, would develop proposals for how the rail upgrade programme, including the Great Western Mainline, will be carried out. He will report to the Secretary of State later in the autumn and it would be premature to speculate on his conclusions.
