Labour — Bexleyheath and Crayford

Speaking in the House of Commons on 29 October 2024

Debate

Lower Thames Crossing

Contribution

Does the Minister agree that we also need to look out for businesses in my constituency of Bexleyheath and Crayford? Currently, when there is congestion, they end up travelling 28 miles—instead of six miles—to the Blackwall tunnel and back again, and a 10-minute journey ends up taking them an hour. We therefore need to look at options for river crossings through both south London and Kent as we move forward.
