Marks Tey Station: Access

Asked by Priti PatelConservativeDepartment for TransportTabled Answered 14 July 2025UIN 66159

The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, whether she considered including Marks Tey railway station in the rail access for all feasibility studies.

Answered by Simon Lightwood

This government is committed to improving the accessibility of the railway and recognises the social and economic benefits this brings to communities.

In May 2024, the previous government selected 50 stations for initial feasibility work for potential upgrades as part of our Access for All programme. This did not include Marks Tey Railway station. We expect to provide an update to stakeholders further during the summer.
