Infrastructure investment is at the heart of our strategy to drive productivity growth across the country:

  • Through the £1.4 billion that will be invested as part of the Greater Anglia Franchise, a new fleet of over 1000 vehicles will be delivered by September 2020.

  • The South-East LEP has secured £590 million from the Local Growth Fund for schemes to boost growth and help deliver new housing.

  • £100-250 million will be invested to widen the A12 to provide extra capacity between Chelmsford and Colchester.
