Written Question
Railway Stations: Corsham
Monday 9th September 2024

Asked by: Sarah Gibson (Liberal Democrat - Chippenham)

Question to the Department for Transport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what assessment the Department has made of the merits of the bid for a railway station in Corsham.

Answered by Lilian Greenwood - Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Department for Transport)

Aside from Restoring Your Railway (RYR) projects currently at the delivery stage or in construction, all remaining RYR-originated projects, including the Corsham station proposal, will be reviewed as part of preparations for the upcoming Spending Review. Ministers have been clear that not all proposed transport projects will be able to proceed to delivery due to the challenging financial situation facing the Department.
