A5 in the Midlands: Improvements

Proceeding contribution from Luke Evans (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 23 March 2022. It occurred during Debate on A5 in the Midlands: Improvements.

My hon. Friend is making a fantastic case for why the A5 is so important. Does he agree that one of the principal problems with

the A5 are the boundaries of the districts, councils and administrations that it borders? That makes things hard, because people always see the A5 as a periphery. We have heard talk about the west midlands, the east midlands, Leicestershire and Northamptonshire, and that is part of the problem. It is so important that my hon. Friend has secured this debate to make sure the Government realise we can release this stricture across the centre of the UK between Wales, England and London, and that doing so would make a huge difference economically, but also to the daily lives of the people we represent.
