(asked on 22nd February 2024) - View Source
Question to the Department for Transport:
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, how much funding his Department has allocated to Bexley Council for (a) pothole and (b) other road repairs in each year since 2015.
The Department has allocated a total of £1.333 million to the London Borough of Bexley for local highway maintenance since 2015, as part of one-off funding uplifts, as set out in the table below. Transport is a devolved matter in London, meaning that the Department for Transport does not routinely allocate highway maintenance funding to London boroughs.
Year | Funding Stream | Amount £ |
2017/18 | Pothole Action Fund | 80,000 |
2018/19 | Budget 2018 | 703,000 |
2023/24 | Roads Resurfacing Fund | 275,000 |
2024/25 | Roads Resurfacing Fund | 275,000 |
Total | 1,333,000 |
Over the period between 2023/24 - 2033/34, the London Borough of Bexley will receive a minimum of £8.345 million funding through the national Roads Resurfacing Fund, as announced within the Prime Minister’s Network North plan on 4 October 2023 and as set out on gov.uk.
