question text	To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what assessment he has made of the effectiveness of the Highways England designated fund for cycling, safety and integration; and how much of that fund was spent in 2016/17.

uin	130164
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 06/03/2018 answer text <p>All schemes delivered though Highways England’s Cycling, Safety and Integration designated fund must demonstrate value for money using an appraisal developed with key stakeholders. This assesses a number of potential benefits such as increased trips and accidents savings. Highways England continues to develop its evaluation process for different designated funds, starting with the Cycling, Safety and Integration designated fund, in order to measure the effectiveness of the projects delivered and ensure that future programmes maximise their benefits.</p><p> </p><p>The total budget for the Cycling, Safety and Integration designated fund is £175m until 2020. Of that sum £53.5m had been spent by January 2018 which represents 31% of the total. The Cycling, Safety and Integration designated fund spend for the 2016/17 financial year was £18.1m.</p><p> </p><p>The expectation has been that Highways England would develop schemes for this fund in the early years of the first road investment period, and then build them in the later years. The effect of this should be that that more schemes are built in the next two years than in the past two.</p><p> </p><p> </p> answering member constituency Hereford and South Herefordshire answering member printed Jesse Norman question first answered 06/03/2018 15:55:32 answering member 3991 label Biography information for Jesse Norman
