Dan Aldridge

Labour — Weston-super-Mare

Speaking in the House of Commons on 28 October 2025

Debate

Connected and Automated Vehicles

Contribution

The success of automated and autonomous vehicles will depend on infrastructure—not just roads but connectivity, data and mapping systems—but if the infrastructure is upgraded only in big cities, we will have a two-tier system and leave behind towns such as Weston-super-Mare. Does my hon. Friend agree that this should be a national project that supports innovation and, importantly, accessibility across the whole country, with a special focus on coastal communities and city centres?
