An interim report has been published, commissioned by the government, looking at ways in which transport can better connect all parts of the UK. Following this publication, the government has announced that it will implement some of the projects identified in the report to help improve transport connections. The government has also said it will consult on cutting Air Air Passenger Duty (APD) on internal UK flights and will commit £20 million to develop plans for upgraded rail, road, sea and air links.
