Roads: Finance
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, whether her Department plans to spend £8.3 billion on local roads.
Answered by Lilian Greenwood
The government is committed to maintaining and renewing the local road network, and to enabling local highway authorities to fix up to a million more potholes a year. The previous government made a number of funding commitments, the affordability of each of which is being examined closely as part of the Spending Review.
