Anne Main – 2016 Parliamentary Question to the Department for Transport

The below Parliamentary question was asked by Anne Main on 2016-10-20.

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, how many strategic rail freight interchanges have been granted planning permission since 2000; and of those granted permission how many have been built.

Paul Maynard

Since 2000, development consent has been given for ten Strategic Rail Freight Interchanges across Great Britain. The Department for Transport does not monitor progress in constructing these sites. However we understand that not all of these interchanges have yet been constructed.
