Written question asked by Bob Stewart (Conservative) on Friday, 28 April 2023, in the House of Commons. It was due for an answer on Wednesday, 3 May 2023. It was answered by Richard Holden (Conservative) on Thursday, 4 May 2023 on behalf of the Department for Transport.


Roads: Greater London

Question

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what information his Department holds on the funding provided to each London borough by Transport for London for the maintenance of the principal road network in (a) the 2023-24 financial year and (b) the last five financial years.

Answer

Since the start of the pandemic, the Government has supported TfL with over £6bn in grant funding. However, transport in London is devolved to the Mayor of London, so decisions on money spent on road maintenance in London is for the Mayor and TfL to make. Therefore, the Department does not hold information on the money provided to each London borough via TfL.
