Question to the Department for Transport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, how much his Department has spend on roads and highways in each year since 2010.

Figures on public sector expenditure are published as a part of the Government’s Country and Regional Analysis (CRA) statistics. The CRA measures the levels of both ‘capital’ and ‘current’ (i.e. resource) expenditure.

Statistics for Department for Transport expenditure on national and local roads are given in the table below. These figures include expenditure incurred by Highways England and DfT executive agencies (including the Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency, the Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency and the Vehicle Certification Agency).

The figures do not include expenditure from DfT to other public sector organisations, such as grant payments made to Local Authorities or Devolved Administrations.
