If re-elected on 8th June I will continue to fight for Gosport, Lee on the Solent, Stubbington and Hill Head.
The last Labour Government told us that our peninsula would never receive any money for road improvements because it was "strategically unimportant". Now seven years on, Gosport & Fareham have seen more progress made on our roads than the preceding seven decades. I have worked tirelessly with local councils and the Solent LEP to get the support and funding we need for local road improvements. I even brought the Secretary of State for Transport to the area to see the problems for himself!
We have secured over £85 million for local improvements including upgrades to Newgate Lane, Peel Common Roundabout, and routes to the M27 as well as £34 million for the long-awaited vital Stubbington Bypass. These works will take time, but once they are complete I am confident that they will take cars off the A32 and ease congestion from the Gosport peninsula right up to the M27.
If re-elected on 8th June I will continue to fight hard for the funding we need to ensure our infrastructure keeps improving.
