The Government\u2019s current road and rail investment programmes are seeing huge levels of investment in our transport network which will provide improved rail and road links to and between our country\u2019s cities and airports.<\/p>

<\/p>

The Government plans to develop a new Aviation strategy to replace the 2013 Aviation Policy Framework<\/em> next year. As part of developing the strategy Government will consider the role of connections between existing airports, and Government\u2019s use of public service obligations.<\/p>
