The modelling used a version of the M4-CAN traffic model extended to take account of the impact of changes in tolls on both the South West of England and Wales and included estimates of wider economic impacts consistent with DfT Transport Appraisal Guidance.</p><p> </p><p>The Government announced on 21 July 2017 that it was removing tolls by the end of 2018. No further modelling was undertaken by the Department for Transport on this specific option.</p> answering member constituency Hereford and South Herefordshire answering member printed Jesse Norman question first answered 14/02/2018 11:43:29 answering member 3991 label Biography information for Jesse Norman
