Oral Answers to Questions

Debate between Simon Lightwood and Alicia Kearns

Thursday 16th July 2026 Commons Chamber

[Alicia Kearns (Rutland and Stamford) (Con)]

I am grateful to the Government for considering improvements to the A605 and Tinwell junctions on the A1, but the current plan is to put traffic lights in place and National Highways agrees that that is not the right approach. Will the Government put the funding, which is welcome, into widening the slip roads, which are far substandard and below the national requirements?

[Simon Lightwood]

I would be happy to meet the hon. Lady to discuss this further.
