Roads: Liverpool
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, if she will continue to fund improvements to the Rocket junction Liverpool-M62 junction 4/A58 project.
Answered by Lilian Greenwood
The Chancellor set out on 29 July a range of pressures on public spending, including £2.9 billion of unfunded transport specific spending. Following this, the Secretary of State’s Written Ministerial Statement on 30 July set out that the Department is undertaking an internal review of its capital spend portfolio which will support the development of our new long-term strategy for transport. Any decisions about the portfolio will be subject to broader discussions and fiscal decisions made at Budget and Spending Review.
