The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, on what date bids for the next wave of City Region Sustainable Transport Settlement funding should be submitted to her Department.

Answered by Simon Lightwood

At October Budget, the Government confirmed funding for the current City Region Sustainable Transport Settlement programme in 2025-26, including a £200m uplift. Further funding beyond 2025-26 is being considered as part of the multi-year Spending Review, which is expected to conclude in late Spring.
