Question to the Department for Transport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what assessment he has made of the potential impact of the building of the North West Relief Road on congestion in Shrewsbury.

The Department for Transport continues to work with local stakeholders, including the MP and Shropshire Council, and is currently awaiting receipt of the Full Business Case (FBC). The scheme, along with its impact, will be assessed by my department once Shropshire Council submit the FBC.
