Question to the Department for Transport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what the total annual public investment in (a) on train wi-fi services and (b) track side wi-fi infrastructure will be in each year from 2014 to 2019.

The funding provided by the Department for W-Fi on-board trains is commercially sensitive information. Releasing it has the potential to impact the commercial arrangements between train operators and their suppliers. The Department does not fund any track side wi-fi infrastructure. Network Rail are looking to develop a commercial case for any service of this type.
