The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what criteria will be used to consider potential sites for funding via the Structures Fund.

Answered by Simon Lightwood

The Department for Transport surveyed local highway authorities and other transport stakeholders on the criteria for prioritising structures for investment through the Structures Fund in February 2026. The Department is currently considering responses to the survey and will confirm the criteria that will be used to prioritise schemes for funding in due course.
