<p>Government has no plans at present to develop the M5 as a growth corridor. However,
this strategic corridor is important for the economies of the Midlands Engine and
the Western Gateway.</p><p>We have supported growth through a number of key projects
which include: the recent announcement of £219million Housing Infrastructure Fund
to improve Junction 10 in Gloucestershire; £12.19million Local Growth Funding to improve
the junction 25 at Taunton; and also the creation of 2 Enterprise Zones, Gravity at
junction 23 near Bridgwater and at the Exeter and East Devon Enterprise Zone at junction
29.</p>
