The Department has received the Outline Business Case for Midlands Rail Hub.

We now need to assess the contribution of the scheme to the Government’s objectives, value for taxpayer money, and affordability considering the forthcoming Autumn Statement.

The Outline Business Case will propose timescales for delivery of the scheme.
