Railways: Greater London

Question

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, whether the Government plans to support the transfer of the Great Northern Rail Line from Govia Thameslink to Transport for London.

Answer

A decision on the transfer of these services will be dependent on a successful business case being made and will also have to be aligned with the Department’s plan for the future of TSGN. This plan will have to take into account the recommendations of the Williams Rail Review, which reports in the autumn.
