Question to the Department for Transport:
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what steps he is taking to improve the condition of roads in England.
As announced in October’s Spending Review, during this Parliament the Government is investing over £5 billion in highways maintenance, outside London and combined authorities receiving City Region Sustainable Transport Settlements. This is enough to fill in millions of potholes, repair dozens of bridges, and resurface roads up and down the country.
Allocations for individual highway authorities for the next three years will be made shortly.
