WORCESTER MP Robin Walker has revealed his new 'wish list' - including getting £70 million to dual Carrington Bridge and a bigger A&E.

After his re-election, the Conservative has told the Worcester News how he is already pressing ahead on several long-term objectives for the city.

It includes:

- Lobbying ministers to ensure a £70 million bid to dual Worcester's Carrington Bridge, is accepted this summer

-  Helping secure £29 million from NHS England to expand Worcestershire's two main hospitals, including the royal 

- "Keeping up the fight" for fairer funding for schools, after years of complaints from headteachers 

- Pushing for more regeneration on brownfield sites in Worcester, including making sure the 215-home estate planned for the old Metal Box factory goes ahead 

- Tackling shortages in school places, and lobbying over getting Perdiswell's old park and ride turned into a new school

As the Worcester News first revealed on Friday, Mr Walker was re-elected but saw his majority tumble 55 per cent to just 2,508 amid a fierce Labour charge.

It now puts the Worcester seat 44th on a Labour hit-list of marginals it needs to win to stand a realistic change of forming a Government, whenever the next election is called, but as high as 10th on a seperate target list which includes a range of additional demographic factors. 

Worcester has risen more than a dozen places up the party rankings. 

Mr Walker, who saw his vote increase despite the squeeze, said: "I want to secure the extra investment in our hospital, make sure the economy can continue to grow and keep fighting for a fairer deal for our schools.

"We've just approved a manifesto commitment which will ensure no school misses out, but we also need more pupil places which is why I want to get this school in place for Perdiswell.

"Then there's Carrington Bridge, before I was even re-elected someone said to me 'make sure we get that funding'.

"I also want to make sure we keep up the regeneration of the city, the proposals for over 200 houses on the Metal Box site (off Perry Wood Walk, by Wyld's Lane) are really good, that's exactly what I want to see more of."

It comes as Labour Cllr Joy Squires said she was "very proud" to have pushed him close.

"It was a better result than I ever expected - I was very proud to back a great Labour manifesto," she said.
