Bridget Phillipson Labour Member of Parliament for Houghton and Sunderland South

Thank you to all of you who filled in my survey on transport and infrastructure in our community. Here’s a summary of what I found out:
- 9 in 10 of you think we should encourage more walking and cycling over car journeys
- 9 in 10 of you think investing in public transport would help grow our local economy
- 94% of you said it would be a good idea to reopen the Leamside line
It’s always great to learn about your priorities directly – and I will use your thoughts to push the government to deliver the right priorities.
I’ll keep fighting for better, modern public transport in our community.
