The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what discussions she has had with National Highways on the A1 through North Northumberland.

Answered by Lilian Greenwood

I hold regular discussions with National Highways on matters related to the Strategic Road Network. I am aware that National Highways is undertaking a safety study on the A1 through Northumberland which focuses on how it can improve the route’s safety rating. The study will identify specific locations where safety performance can be enhanced. These locations can then be considered for funding as part of the future Road Investment Strategies.
