Question to the Department for Transport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, when he plans to announce which Access for All programmes will be funded during Control Period 7.

As part of our recent Network North announcement, the Government confirmed £350m will be made available to improve the accessibility of our train stations. We are assessing over 300 nominations for Access for All funding. At stations awarded funding this will create an obstacle free, accessible route from the station entrance to platforms. Successful nominations will be announced in due course.
