Railways: Carbon Emissions
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, pursuant to parliamentary question 78887 answered on 20 October, whether freight traction decarbonisation is within the scope of its long-term infrastructure and rolling stock strategy.
Answered by Keir Mather
The main focus of the strategy will be on the future needs for passenger rolling stock, and for associated changes to the railway infrastructure.
However, within the strategy, the approach to decarbonisation will also need to take account of the needs of freight users.
