East West Rail Line: Development Consent Orders
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, whether she plans to publish an updated Business Case for East West Rail before the commencement of the Development Consent Order examination.
Answered by Simon Lightwood
In line with Treasury guidance, the development of the Business Case for East West Rail will progress as East West Rail Company continues to develop and refine the project.
The Full Business Case will be submitted for approval and then published, once planning consent has been secured, which is standard for this type of project.
