uin	119877
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 14/02/2022 answer text <p>During the pandemic, the Government has provided unprecedented levels of financial support to the bus sector through its emergency and recovery support packages. Over £1.7bn has been provided to operators and Local Transport Authorities to date since March 2020. This is in addition to £200 million of Bus Services Operator’s Grant (BSOG) paid by the Department directly to operators, and £43 million of BSOG paid directly to LTAs so that they can subsidise socially necessary bus services.</p><p> </p><p>Our National Bus Strategy is explicit about seeking to ensure that the needs of rural transport users are given equal consideration to those in urban environments. The Government recognises that the transport needs of communities in rural areas differ from those in urban environments for a variety of reasons including demographics, lower population density and travel distances. All English Local Transport Authorities (LTAs) have had the opportunity to set out their requirements and needs in Bus Service Improvement Plans.</p> answering member constituency Copeland answering member printed Trudy Harrison question first answered 14/02/2022 12:39:15 answering member 4593 label Biography information for Trudy Harrison

uin	116674
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 24/11/2020 answer text <p>Safety is the Department and Highways England’s main priority on all sections of the Strategic Road Network (SRN), comprised of England’s motorways and principal A-roads, and this is addressed through public information campaigns and infrastructure solutions where necessary. No specific policy assessment has been undertaken on safety on the A1 as distinct from other roads.</p><p> </p><p>The number of reported personal injury road accidents that included at least one motor vehicle in 2019 on the A1 and A1(M) was 802, with 326 being reported in the same year on the A1 and A1(M) between the M25 and M62. The proportion of journeys travelled by Heavy Goods Vehicles (HGVs) on the A1 is not available. HGVs accounted for 11% of all motor vehicle traffic on the SRN in 2019, but this is not available to be broken down by road number. Data on productivity losses due to vehicle collisions is not routinely collected and monitored but is taken into account when assessing the need for specific policy responses such as infrastructure schemes.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Redditch answering member printed Rachel Maclean question first answered 24/11/2020 16:17:50 answering member 4668 label Biography information for Rachel Maclean
