answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 01/05/2024 answer text <p>The Government has recently announced a £8.3 billion funding uplift for roads resurfacing across England between 2023/24 – 2033/34. As part of this it has provided the London Borough of Bexley Council with an additional £275,000 in 2023/24 and will provide a further £275,000 in 2024/25.</p><p> </p><p>This money has been provided directly to the respective London Borough rather than via the Mayor of London. At a national level, the Department publishes statistics on gov.uk on the condition and maintenance of the highways in England.</p><p> </p><p>Ultimately, however, under the 1980 Highway Act it is the responsibility of the local highway authority, in this case the London Borough of Bexley Council, to maintain and manage the highway network they are responsible for. In London, transport is a devolved matter, and the overall state of London’s roads is a matter for the Mayor.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Hexham answering member printed Guy Opperman question first answered 01/05/2024 12:53:10 answering member 4142 label Biography information for Guy Opperman
