MPs pressed the Government on whether it will fund better rail and road links for people who rely on cross-border travel for work, education and healthcare, especially in the Forest of Dean and along the England-Wales border. Lucy Rigby said the Government is working with the Welsh Government on rail plans and pointed to £445 million for Welsh rail improvements, including investment at Padeswood on the Wrexham to Liverpool line; she also said ministers want growth to reach border areas and beyond.
