Freeport East
- Question
-
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what assessment he has made of the adequacy of existing rail infrastructure in supporting the Freeport East project.
- Answer
-
We recognise the potential opportunities for the UK generated by Freeport East at the ports of Felixstowe and Harwich, as well as the value of rail access to ports, with schemes such as the partial doubling of the Felixstowe branch line completing in 2019. Freeport status will be considered in relation to transport upgrades in the region.
