In his Six Point Plan for Ipswich, Ben Gummer and the Conservatives promised to secure the funds to build a Wet Dock Crossing across the Orwell. The Chancellor announced that the Wet Dock Crossing would be given the go-ahead.
As a Suffolk boy, it has been the greatest honour to represent a town I have known and cared about since I was a child. I am proud of what we have done in the last seven years to help Ipswich begin to become the town it deserves to be.
Ben Gummer is the only candidate to vote for, building on our town's successes and ensure Theresa May is the person to see us through Brexit and keep our nation secure and our economy strong.
Ben campaigned for retaining services in Ipswich Hospital even before he became MP for Ipswich, successfully leading to bringing back heart and other specialist services to Heath Road.
The Railway Station forecourt re-design originally had no trees included in the design until Ben intervened and the council agreed to plant 16 new trees.
Two years ago, Ben promised two new routes - a Northern Route and the Upper Orwell Crossings - to end the congestion that too often blocks our town. He has managed to win the funding and engage an architect to start work on the Upper Orwell Crossings.
Ben Gummer works tirelessly in partnership with the Conservative government, Conservative County Council, Ipswich Vision Board and the Borough to get the investment Ipswich needs.
