Railways: Electrification
(asked on 25th March 2019) - View Source
Question to the Department for Transport:
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what economic impact assessment has been carried out on the electrification of the rail network in the north of England.
This question was answered on 29th March 2019
A business case was completed in 2017 for the whole of the North of England programme. This was a system wide assessment which included re-signalling, track upgrades, additional platforms and electrification and therefore it was not possible to isolate the economic assessment of electrification.
