In the business planning process last year, the Department provisionally allocated a total of £146m to Active Travel England in the 2024-25 financial year. This comprises £54m capital and £92m revenue funding. The Department\u2019s business planning process for the 2024/25 financial year is ongoing and final plans will be published in due course.<\/p>

<\/p>

This is only one element of over £3 billion that is being invested in active travel over the course of this Parliament, from a wide range of funding streams from across Government. This includes funding from the City Region Sustainable Transport Settlements and the Levelling Up Fund.<\/p>

The procurement, safety risk assessment, and safe operation of the Hitachi AT300 rolling stock is the responsibility of the operator. When running rolling stock procurements, operators take account of factors such as what products are available to the market, reliability, operating cost, passenger capacity, comfort and environmental performance. Network Rail is currently upgrading infrastructure on parts of the West Coast Main Line to allow higher speed running with non-tilting trains. The Office of Rail and Road is responsible for ensuring the new trains meet rail safety regulatory requirements before they can operate on the mainline.<\/p>

The Department is looking forward to the introduction of Avanti West Coast's brand new Hitachi rolling stock later this year which will replace its current diesel fleet in line with the Department's goal to run a more sustainable railway, resulting in a 61 per cent cut in carbon emissions, as well as offering more space and a quieter journey for passengers.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4442", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Huw Merriman"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Bexhill and Battle"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Huw Merriman"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2024-02-07", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2024-02-07T16:13:43.457Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "27"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Transport"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Transport"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2024-01-31", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Avanti West Coast: Rolling Stock"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what information his Department holds on (a) whether any issues were identified during the testing of new Hitachi AT300 rolling stock to replace Voyager on Avanti West Coast services, (b) whether an assessment has been made of the potential effect of the lack of tilt mechanism for those trains on (i) maintaining safe operation around bends at speed, (ii) journey times and (iii) rail timetables and (c) for what reason the tender for the rolling stock replacement for Voyager on Avanti West Coast services did not specify the inclusion of a tilt mechanism.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4643", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Jack Brereton"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Stoke-on-Trent South"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Jack Brereton"} ], "uin" : "12360"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1686244", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Department for Transport"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1686244/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "

The recently announced Network North programme of investment included confirmation of government\u2019s support for the Ely Area Capacity Enhancement (EACE) programme and the substantial benefits this will bring, including a doubling of passenger services on the Ely to Kings Lynn and Ipswich to Peterborough routes together with additional freight paths into the Port of Felixstowe.<\/p>

In 2014-15 the total freight moved was 22.2 billion net tonne km. This has decreased by 29% to 15.7 billion net tonne km in 2022-23. Much of the decline is due to the phasing out of coal for power stations. Coal traffic decreased by 93% from 6.5 billion net tonne km in 2014-15 to 0.5 billion net tonne km in 2022-23.<\/p>

If coal is excluded, the total amount of freight moved has decreased by 3% from 15.7 billion net tonne km in 2014-15 to 15.2 billion net tonne km in 2022-23. However, there is significant potential for growth and that is why the government has set a target of at least 75% growth in freight moved by rail by 2050.<\/p>

The government is committed to growing rail freight.<\/p>

Network Rail has committed to supporting growth of 7.5% in CP7 (2024-2029) and are working on plans to achieve this. That will form the first step on the way to the 2050 target.<\/p>

The Rail Minister hosts bi-monthly roundtable meetings with key rail freight stakeholders. Network Rail also continues to work closely with freight operators to improve performance, with increases seen recently in Network Rail\u2019s Freight Delivery Metric.<\/p>

The Government encourages and incentivises modal shift from road to rail by allocating £20m per year to the Mode Shift Revenue Support scheme. In 2022/23, the scheme removed the need for around 900,000 HGV journeys, saving almost 40,000 tonnes of CO2 emissions.<\/p>

The Government has also contributed over £12.5m to 33 "First of a Kind" R&D projects and £7m through the \u201cFuture of Freight\u201d fund both to boost innovation and help decarbonise freight.<\/p>
