Rail Services and Related Transport Matters: Statements.

 

I wish to make a brief point about motorways. We cannot limit the debate on transport to rail. Motorways are important but as soon as they are built they will become congested. They will not work effectively unless there is a more long-term overall plan for them. It is important to set realistic targets for motorway projects. I welcome the fact that the NRA will become more accountable with the availability of its agendas for meetings under the Freedom of Information Act in the next few weeks. I hope the NRA will become even more accountable over time.
