uin	HL17094
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 23/07/2019 answer text <p>The majority of station car parks are the responsibility of Train Operating Companies. The Department encourages these organisations to identify car parks that are at capacity and work with local partners. The result may be physical car park expansion, or a more innovative approach such as promoting car-sharing. Furthermore, the Department’s Cycle-Rail programme has tripled the number of cycle parking spaces at more than 500 stations, bringing the total to over 80,000 since 2010.</p> answering member printed Baroness Vere of Norbiton question first answered 23/07/2019 15:08:31 answering member 4580 label Biography information for Baroness Vere of Norbiton
