The Department for Transport is also providing £50 million for the Bikeability programme over the same period, which is helping to provide hundreds of thousands of schoolchildren each year with the skills they need to cycle safely on the road.</p><p> </p> more like this

answer text <p>An initial decision to provide £30m towards the Garden Bridge project was taken by the former Chancellor on the condition that certain requirements were met. The transfer of £30m to Transport for London was instigated once the proposal had been considered by the Department’s business investment committee. The National Audit Office carried out an investigation into the funding and reported in 2016.</p><p> </p> more like this

answer text <p>Spend on pre-construction activity on the Garden Bridge project was capped at £13.5m. The former Secretary of State for Transport agreed that a further £9m could be spent on cancellation liabilities should the project not go ahead. Following cancellation of the project, the Garden Bridge Trust has submitted a claim for around £5m of cancellation liabilities. The final spend figure will be known after the standstill period of 3 months (from 13 February) which allows for any final remaining claims to come forward. We do not expect any remaining claims to be substantial. Therefore we expect the total spend to be around £18.5m with £11.5m returned to the Department once the claim is settled.</p> more like this
