The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what assessment has she made of the differences in access to public transport facilities in (a) towns and (b) cities.

Answered by Lilian Greenwood

The Department recognises the importance of having a well-connected, integrated and accessible transport provision available across the country. We are developing a long-term transport strategy to set the vision for domestic transport in England which will consider the variances in transport needs among different communities, including towns and cities.
