Roads: Finance
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, when her department will begin to engage with local highways authorities ahead of reviewing the highways capital funding formula ahead of the 2030/31 financial year.
Answered by Simon Lightwood
The Department engages regularly with local highway authorities and sector bodies to support the maintenance and renewal of the local road network.
The review of the funding formula will be conducted to align with the end of the period for which highways maintenance block allocations have already been made; formal engagement with local highway authorities will commence ahead of this.
