A120: Dual Carriageways

The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what progress her Department has made on plans for the A120 dualling scheme, in the context of the cancellation of the A12 widening scheme.

Answered by Lilian Greenwood

Working closely with local partners, National Highways has developed options to improve the A120 between Braintree and Marks Tey as part of the pipeline of projects being developed for possible delivery in a future Road Investment Strategy. Schemes in the RIS pipeline are uncommitted, and the Department will need to take decisions on which are the most viable for delivery. The Department expects to confirm which schemes remain in the Pipeline, and which will continue to be developed, when RIS3 is published early next year.
