The policy was launched with a fanfare in 2011 by then transport secretary Philip Hammond, who claimed the 70mph limit had been "discredited" and a rise to 80mph would boost the economy.
But Mr McLoughlin is reported not to share Mr Hammond's enthusiasm for the plan, which has been condemned by road safety groups.
