Great to be at @AlstomUK’s factory in Derby today to see the first of 10 brand new Elizabeth line trains starting production. Investment in London’s infrastructure drives economic growth, jobs and the manufacturing supply chain right across the whole of the UK.

A new report on early economic impacts of the Elizabeth line shows 125,000 jobs and 71,000 homes created within 1km of stations, as London’s transport network drives wider growth in local communities: https://t.co/bJiQJe1WGo
