Question to the Department for Levelling Up, Housing & Communities:

To ask the Secretary of State for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities, what assessment he has made of the potential merits of the application to the Levelling Up Fund for a new swing bridge at Winnington, Northwich; and what the timeframe is for consideration of that application.

The Department for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities (DLUHC) did not receive a Levelling Up Fund application from Winnington, Northwich for the first round of the Fund.

There will be further opportunities to access funding with the second round of the Levelling Up Fund opening in spring 2022. More information on the second round will be set out in due course.
