On 20 July 2017 the Transport Secretary made clear that new technology \u2013 in particular the availability of bi-mode technology \u2013 meant we no longer need to electrify every part of every line in order to improve journeys for passengers.<\/p>
Bi-mode trains, such as those operating on the Great Western main line, offer seamless transfer from diesel power to electric, undetectable to passengers. This technology allows us to bring passengers the benefits of more comfortable, fast journeys with more capacity, more quickly using innovative trains without disruptive electrification works taking place.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/3926", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Paul Maynard"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Blackpool North and Cleveleys"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Paul Maynard"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2017-11-14", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2017-11-14T12:16:16.007Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "27"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Transport"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Transport"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2017-11-06", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Railways: Electrification"} , "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, pursuant to the Written Ministerial Statement of 20 July 2017, on rail update, HCWS85, if he will publish the evidential basis for the claim that it is no longer necessary to electrify every line to achieve the same significant improvements to journeys.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/1533", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Dame Diana Johnson"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Kingston upon Hull North"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Diana Johnson"} ], "uin" : "111720"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/785011", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Department for Transport"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/785011/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "
The precise commissioning and maintenance costs of trains depends on the model of the trains assumed. The Government has been clear that it will electrify lines where it delivers both genuine benefits to passengers and value to the taxpayer.<\/p>
<\/p>
In considering the change in its approach to improving rail services, the Government considered a number of factors, including the value for money of the available options.<\/p>
<\/p>
While bi-modes may be more expensive to operate than electric trains, they provide greater flexibility for operators when developing their timetables and increases the rolling stock resilience in response to disruption.<\/p>
<\/p>
Bi-modes allow us to take advantage of state of the art technology to improve journeys for passengers by reducing the up-front capital costs of infrastructure because wires and gantries do not need to be installed along entire routes.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/3926", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Paul Maynard"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Blackpool North and Cleveleys"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Paul Maynard"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2017-11-14", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2017-11-14T12:19:07.57Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "27"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Transport"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Transport"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2017-11-06", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Railways: Electrification"} , "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, pursuant to the Written Ministerial Statement of 20 July 2017, on rail update, HCWS85, what estimate his Department has made of the cost of (a) commissioning and (b) maintaining (i) electric trains which would have been used on the lines which no longer will be electrified and (ii) the bi-mode trains which will now be used on those lines in pence per vehicles mile.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/1533", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Dame Diana Johnson"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Kingston upon Hull North"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Diana Johnson"} ], "uin" : "111721"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/785012", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Department for Transport"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/785012/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "

In addition to this it is not possible to allocate spending precisely on a project that crosses and benefits many regions, for example HS2.<\/p> <\/p> This Department focuses on delivering outcomes for transport users, not on spending per head. An analysis of regional spend per head of resident population would not, for example, take into account the pressure that large numbers of commuters and visitors from outside of a region can add to a region\u2019s transport networks. In addition, larger and more densely built-up areas tend to make greater use of mass public transport systems. For example, in 2015/16 there were 537 million rail journeys within the London area compared to 142 million in the North. Investment by the Department is made based on a fair and rigorous process that ensures that spending goes where it is most needed.<\/p> The Infrastructure and Projects Authority\u2019s National Infrastructure and Construction Pipeline (NICP) publishes a forward look of transport capital investment for 2016-17 to 2020-21. However, due to methodological challenges, the majority of public sector transport capital investment is not allocated to specific English regions. It therefore does not provide a complete picture on spend per capita by region.<\/p> <\/p> <\/p> <\/p>"}
