Local context
Exmouth and Exeter East links the coastal town of Exmouth with the eastern suburbs of Exeter and communities between them. Exmouth is the largest distinct town, sitting at the mouth of the River Exe and facing the English Channel, while the western side connects into the wider Exeter urban area. The constituency also includes suburban and semi-rural communities along the Exe estuary and east of the city. Coastal landscapes, estuary wetlands and surrounding countryside separate some settlements, giving the seat a more varied physical character than Exeter itself. Major road and rail routes link Exmouth with Exeter, while the Jurassic Coast begins just to the east of the town.

Election data comes from UK Parliament. Turnout percentage is calculated by Project Open Gov from Parliament's turnout and electorate figures.
A population and household snapshot for Exmouth and Exeter East, using validated House of Commons Library constituency datasets.
Population figures are mid-2024 estimates from the House of Commons Library. Project Open Gov calculates the estimated population shown above by summing the six published age-band counts. View population source ↗
Housing tenure shows how households in this constituency described their home at the most recent census.
“Other tenure” combines shared ownership and households recorded as living rent free.
Housing-tenure figures come from the most recent census: 2021 in England, Wales and Northern Ireland and 2022 in Scotland. View housing-tenure source ↗
A broad view of household types in this constituency. Project Open Gov uses the four broad groups supplied by the Commons Library so the presentation remains consistent across the UK.
Household-composition figures come from the Commons Library constituency dataset. The source uses census data and Project Open Gov displays its broad household groups rather than attempting to harmonise the detailed categories itself. View household-composition source ↗
The source records whether day-to-day activities are limited and uses separate person-level tables for England & Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland.
Comparison note: the workbook uses different source terminology across the UK: England & Wales uses “Disabled under the Equality Act”, while Scotland and Northern Ireland use “Disabled” / “Non-disabled”. Project Open Gov therefore preserves the source categories and does not present them as one single like-for-like UK legal definition.
Disability figures come from the Commons Library constituency workbook. This profile uses the person-level tables only; the workbook also contains separate household-level disability tables which are not used here. View disability source ↗

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what the (a) average and (b) maximum time is between a Section 38 agreement being signed and formal road adoption by Devon County Council in Exmouth and Exeter East constituency.
