Question to the Department for Transport:
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, pursuant to the Answer of 7 November 2025 to Question 86919 on Railways: East of England, if he will take steps to estimate the funding required for Network Rail to undertake detailed planning for the Ely Area Capacity Enhancement Scheme.
This question was answered on 18th November 2025
The previous government had committed to a number of projects that were unfunded, including the Ely Area Capacity Enhancement (EACE) scheme.
EACE will be kept under review. It is a worthy scheme that will be considered for potential progression in the future as funding becomes available.
