Birmingham politician agrees with Warwickshire and Coventry Liberal Democrats

Writing on his blog site John Hemming, who until May was the MP for the Birmingham Yardley constituency, backs plans for the Coventry and Warwickshire local authorities to work together.

As part of the £50m project, our team also installed 11 new switches and crossings at Bathampton Junction, which enable trains to move from one track to another. This project is the largest we have carried out to date and is the biggest on the Western route for 40 years. It has been a complex job, given the historic architecture and infrastructure we worked with, but we completed the work on time ready to re-open the line to passengers on the mo
