Question
To ask the Scottish Government whether it will provide an update on the "Missed" milestone, "Agree single option", on page 11 of the Scotland's Railway July 2022 publication, Enhancements Delivery Plan, which had an aspirational date of May 2022.
Answer
I am advised by my officials in Transport Scotland that the finalisation of the Single Option is being revised by Network Rail to ensure alignment with wider improvements proposed for the Aberdeen-Central Belt route, including future electrification. I expect an update from Transport Scotland on this matter imminently.
