Question to the Department for Transport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, whether she has made a recent assessment of the potential merits of the proposed A39 Camelford bypass.

The Department is committed to putting transport at the heart of mission-driven government to support economic growth, promote social mobility and tackle regional inequality. The Chancellor has committed to presenting to Parliament, before summer recess, an assessment of the state of the new Government’s spending inheritance. We will consider proposals for the A39 Camelford bypass alongside other future road projects and will provide an update in due course.
