The below Parliamentary question was asked by Stephen Timms on 2016-09-06.

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what steps he plans to take to ensure that local authorities are (a) kept informed on and (b) can contribute to Transport for London’s work on business cases for future development of Crossrail 2.

Paul Maynard

Transport for London meets regularly with local authorities to discuss Crossrail 2’s development, including working with local authorities to assess growth projects and associated infrastructure needs to ensure a robust business case is developed. Alongside this ongoing engagement, several formal consultations have already been held, and more will follow as the scheme develops.
