Question to the Department for Transport:
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, if she will provide funding for the A12 widening scheme.
On 30 July 2024, the Secretary of State announced that she was commissioning a review of the Department’s capital spend portfolio.
This review is ongoing and will support the development of our long-term strategy for transport, developing a modern and integrated network with people at its heart, ensuring that transport infrastructure can be delivered efficiently and on time.
The A12 Chelmsford to A120 widening scheme is being considered as part of the capital review alongside other future road projects.
