The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, when she plans to decide whether her Department will progress the Ely Area Capacity Enhancements scheme to the next development stage.
Answered by Simon Lightwood
Secretary of State set out the schemes that have been prioritised for the Spending Review period in her 8 July announcement and made clear that other schemes would be kept under review as part of our pipeline for potential progression in future as funding becomes available. The Ely Area Capacity scheme was closed by the previous government and it has not been possible to reprioritise it at the most recent Spending Review.
