Proceeding contribution from Lord Khan of Tooting (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 11 March 2010. It occurred during Ministerial statement on High Speed Rail.
High Speed Rail
All our forward projections tell us that usage is going to go up on the railways. Capacity is the biggest challenge we will face over the next two or three decades. I can give the hon. Gentleman an assurance that we will work with him to ensure that his concerns are not realised, and that there is no reduction in conventional rail services as a result of what we hope will be the success of high speed rail.
