To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what her policy is on the potential provision of funding for dualling the Norwich Western Link.
Answered by Lilian Greenwood - Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Department for Transport)
The Secretary of State for Transport has commissioned a review of the Department’s capital portfolio which will inform the next phase of the cross-Government Spending Review. It is too early to say how this will affect the proposed Norwich Western Link, but the Department will be in touch with the promoter, when there is further information.

Question to the Department for Transport:
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, if her Department will dual the A47 from Tilney to East Winch.
Answered by Lilian Greenwood - Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Department for Transport)
There are currently no plans to dual the A47 from Tilney to East Winch, Norfolk. The performance of this section of the A47, and the wider A47 route, has been considered by National Highways as part of its interim East of England Route Strategy, and its investment requirements will form the basis of future network planning.
