M25: Repairs and Maintenance
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what assessment she has made of the economic impact to businesses and communities in Runnymede and Weybridge constituency of the M25/A3 improvement works.
Answered by Lilian Greenwood
National Highways (NH) is delivering a scheme on the M25 junction 10/A3 Wisley interchange and selected surrounding roads to reduce congestion, improve safety, support planned housing and economic growth, and improve provision for pedestrians, cyclists and horse riders crossing or using routes in the vicinity of M25 junction 10.
During the economic assessments of this scheme, NH appraised the economic impact of road user delays during construction, as well as the long-term benefits for the whole scheme across the aggregate area. As this did not separate out the assessment by areas, the impact in the Runnymede and Weybridge constituency specifically cannot be quantified.
