Railways: Wiltshire
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what recent discussions her Department has had with (a) local authorities and (b) transport groups on the potential implementation of proposed rail reform proposals in Wiltshire.
Answered by Simon Lightwood
In February, the Department for Transport launched an eight-week consultation “A railway fit for Britain’s future”. As part of that, a webinar event was held for stakeholders to come and ask questions. Further detailed discussions were held with sub national transport groups and community rail.
The Department plans to use the publication of the Government’s response to that consultation to set out next steps for rail reform.
