This problem will only get worse unless the alternatives to rising car use—walking, cycling and public transport—are safer, more convenient and affordable. Will the …..."

Travel: Finance
Tuesday 13th July 2021

Asked by: Lilian Greenwood (Labour - Nottingham South)

Question to the Department for Transport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, how many and which highway authorities were notified that they could not bid for active travel capital funding for 2021-22 from Tranche 3 of the Active Travel Fund.

Answered by Chris Heaton-Harris

The Department made it clear to authorities that their performance with earlier tranches of active travel funding would be taken into account in allocating future funds. One council was not invited to bid this year and, for similar reasons, a number of other authorities will receive a reduction in their allocation, or if their bids are not of high enough quality, potentially no funding at all.

Roads: Repairs and Maintenance
Monday 12th July 2021

Asked by: Lilian Greenwood (Labour - Nottingham South)

Question to the Department for Transport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what proportion of steel used by Highways England in the construction and repair of the strategic road network is manufactured in the UK.

Answered by Baroness Maclean of Redditch

Highways England cannot currently determine what proportion of steel used in the construction and repair of the Strategic Road Network (SRN) is manufactured in the UK. Steel is purchased within the supply chain and not by Highways England directly.

Highways England is working with its suppliers to obtain deeper visibility of raw material sourcing and manage its supply pipeline effectively.
