To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, whether she considered including Marks Tey railway station in the rail access for all feasibility studies.
Answer
Simon LightwoodThis government is committed to improving the accessibility of the railway and recognises the social and economic benefits this brings to communities.
In May 2024, the previous government selected 50 stations for initial feasibility work for potential upgrades as part of our Access for All programme. This did not include Marks Tey Railway station. We expect to provide an update to stakeholders further during the summer.
