From the £5.8 billion the Department for Transport (DfT) announced in December 2014 to be allocated to local highway authorities in England for highways maintenance between 2015 and 2021, we have allocated £275 million between 2015 and 2017 for a local highways maintenance Challenge Fund for major maintenance projects. We announced on 24 March 2015 those schemes which would receive funding. The allocation by region is shown in the table below.<\/p>

For a selection of schemes, the Department has requested further information from local highway authorities to ensure that they are in a position to proceed. Subject to this, it is expected that the Department would begin to allocate funding to the authorities this summer.<\/p>
