Railways: Passengers
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, if she will make an estimate of future rail passenger demand by 2050.
Answered by Simon Lightwood
In line with our published guidance, the Department has developed and maintains a number of possible rail demand forecasts in both the medium and long term which we update at regular intervals. Our long-term forecasting framework extends to (and beyond) 2050. As part of this, the Department considers and includes a wide range of evidence.
