Question to the Department for Transport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, with reference to the Answer of 11 September 2023 to Question 196013, whether his Department plans to announce the successful applications for the Access for All funding by the end of 2023.

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 beyond 2024. 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.
