Question to the Department for Transport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, whether his Department plans to provide additional funding to the Camp Hill railway line in Birmingham for increases in costs arising from the delay in opening that line until the end of 2024.

In Summer 2021 the Department released £59m of Rail Network Enhancement (RNEP) funding towards the delivery of five new stations, including three on the Camp Hill line.

I understand from West Midlands Rail Executive (WMRE), who are responsible for managing delivery of the work, that the stations remain on budget despite the recent delay.
