Proceeding contribution from Mary Glindon (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 26 October 2010. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Transport (Investment).


Transport (Investment)

I thank the Minister for agreeing to meet my hon. Friend the Member for Jarrow (Mr Hepburn) and me, and I welcome the upgrade of the Tyne and Wear metro, but people need jobs to travel to. The A19 corridor is crucial to the north-east's economic development. Given the importance of the tunnel opening in 2011 and the two junctions on either side being improved, will the Minister increase the size of the meeting to include some business people and councillors who will also be able to make that case ably?
