The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, whether her Department plans to publish an integrated national transport strategy.

Answered by Lilian Greenwood

Better integrating transport networks is one of the Transport Secretary’s five strategic priorities.

The current transport system is fragmented, lacks join up and cohesion and does not cater for the needs of all the people who use it.

In future, transport should be designed, built and operated with people and their needs at its heart. The Secretary of State will set out further details shortly.
