This funding includes an action fund to help combat potholes totalling £296 million between 2016 and 2021.

The Department recognises, however, that the severe frosts of 2018 are likely to have affected local road quality.</p> answering member constituency Hereford and South Herefordshire answering member printed Jesse Norman question first answered 11/10/2018 13:13:19 answering member 3991 label Biography information for Jesse Norman
