Labour — Swindon South

Speaking in the House of Commons on 8 July 2025

Debate

Road and Rail Projects

Contribution

The simple truth is that we inherited a series of commitments that could not be afforded, so we had to take the difficult decision not to progress some projects. National Highways will now work to bring those projects to a close. I will say that on the A12, if there are individual, small-scale interventions that could unlock or address particular problems, we would be happy to look at those.
