Question
To ask the Scottish Government, further to the answer to question S6W-01926 by Graeme Dey on 23 August 2021, how many of the 58 potential new stations have been appraised in line with the Scottish Transport Appraisal Guidance (STAG).
Answer
The Scottish Transport Appraisal Guidance (STAG) provides a framework to identify and appraise transport interventions. The process is designed to provide investment decision-makers with the information they need in a clear, structured format. The second Strategic Transport Projects Review is following STAG as the basis for undertaking its appraisal, therefore all 58 station options are being appraised in line with STAG.
