Question to the Department for Transport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, if his Department will conduct a further review into the capacity of the road network in the UK; and if he will make a statement.

The Infrastructure Act 2015 commits the government to regularly reviewing the needs of England’s strategic road network, and also to create regular Road Investment Strategies that take the findings of these reviews into account.

I expect to make a statement later in the year about the process for developing the next Road Investment Strategy.
