The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what recent progress her Department has made on assessing applications to the Structures Fund.

Answered by Simon Lightwood

In April, the Department published the Structures Fund’s prospectus, setting out the fund’s investment criteria and how local highway authorities can put forward proposals for funding. Local highway authorities have until 3 August to put forward proposals for investment. Proposals will then be assessed by the Department.
