'Made possible by reallocated HS2 funding'
It is becoming more expensive to maintain our roads and some parts need to be replaced. Some highways have deteriorated faster because of under-investment or severe weather events.
Due to this the government allocates funding for upgrades and renewals of local road infrastructure.
The Government is providing £8.3 billion of extra roads resurfacing funding for English local highway authorities between 2023/24 to 2033/34. This money will, over time, transform the condition of local roads, allowing all road users smoother, faster, and safer trips - paid for with savings delivered by the Prime Minister’s decision to cancel HS2 Phase 2.
All HS2 savings that would have been spent in the North or the Midlands will still be spent there, with savings from a revised approach to delivering Euston station shared across the rest of the country.
We will receive £19,789,000 from the Government over the next ten years.
To see how this funding will be spent in the next year, see our tables.
