Trolleybuses

Question

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what progress has been made on the Inquiry Inspector's report following the public inquiry into the New Generation Trolleybus scheme; and when he plans to make a further announcement on that scheme.

Answer

The Inspector who held an inquiry into this scheme between April and October last year submitted an extensive report to the Department on 29 July 2015. We are giving the report careful consideration and will publish it with a fully reasoned decision letter as soon as reasonably possible. Given the complex issues involved in this case it is too early to predict when that will be.
