answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 22/07/2015 answer text <p>In July 2014, the Secretary of State for Transport announced the next steps for delivering a new Lower Thames crossing. It is vital that the right location is chosen, which is why the final two options, Options A and C, are being assessed in detail. Work led by Highways England is currently underway to determine where and how best to tie in a new crossing to the existing road network. This work is expected to lead to public consultation on a proposed solution in late 2015 or early 2016.</p><p> </p> answering member printed Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon question first answered 22/07/2015 10:30:18 answering member 4210 label Biography information for Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 23/06/2015 answer text <p>This remains an operational matter for public transport operators to decide on.　 There are already good practice examples within the industry such as Southern’s Priority Seat Card which can be shown to fellow passengers who are sitting in a priority seat. This will indicate that the passenger using the card has been recognised by Southern as needing a priority seat. The Government is keen to encourage further uptake of these schemes. It remains the responsibility of train operators and their staff to assist priority passengers to obtain a seat and direct other passengers occupying seats accordingly.</p><p> </p> answering member printed Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon question first answered 23/06/2015 11:18:24 answering member 4210 label Biography information for Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon
