Written question asked by John Hayes (Conservative) on Monday, 4 September 2023, in the House of Commons. It was due for an answer on Wednesday, 6 September 2023. It was answered by Richard Holden (Conservative) on Monday, 11 September 2023 on behalf of the Department for Transport.
A16 and A17: Dual Carriageways
- Question
-
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, whether his Department has made an assessment of the potential economic benefits of dualling the A16 and A17.
- Answer
-
The A16 and A17 are the responsibility of local highway authorities – Lincolnshire County Council through South Holland and the Deepings, and neighbouring authorities where they run beyond the county council’s boundary. It is for those authorities to assess the benefits of improvements to areas of their networks, and to seek funding, if required.
Almost £20 million from the Levelling Up Fund has been allocated to improve the A16 corridor between Boston and Spalding, improving transport links for the food growth sector.
