answer text <p>In January 2018, the Government published its Industrial Strategy Automotive Sector Deal to support the continuing competitiveness of the UK’s automotive sector and its local supply chains.</p><p> </p><p>The Government’s Road to Zero Strategy – published in July – set out its ambitions for all new cars and vans to be effectively zero emission by 2040. The transition will be supported by a package of demand, supply and infrastructure measures, and £1.5 billion in funding. This includes assisting consumers in meeting the cost of ultra low emission vehicles with a variety of plug-in grant funding schemes for eligible ultra low emission cars, vans, taxis and motorcycles.</p><p> </p><p>The Government’s recent international Zero Emission Vehicle Summit emphasised its ambitions to lead this global transition, bringing other nations along through the ‘Birmingham Declaration’. At the Summit the Prime Minister announced £106 million in an R&amp;D funding package for innovators in ultra low emission vehicle technology, including in new battery and low carbon technologies.</p><p> </p><p>By supporting new ultra low emission vehicles, the Government is also helping to build the second hand market in the UK, which already offers a wide range of more affordable models. Owners of used ultra low emission vehicles are able to take advantage of the favourable tax regime now in place, alongside local initiatives such as free parking and grant schemes to help with the cost of installing chargepoints.</p><p> </p><p>There are no plans to introduce a vehicle scrappage or replacement scheme.</p>

answer text <p>Seaton Lane is part of the local road network and is the responsibility of Durham County Council. The Department for Transport funds local road improvements by providing an annual integrated transport block grant to local authorities and by contributing about £7 billion towards the £12 billion Local Growth Fund, which Local Enterprise Partnerships can use to fund highway improvement schemes. The Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government are working with Sunderland City Council to develop its bid to the Housing Infrastructure Fund. If successful, this would support the delivery of around 3,000 additional homes in South Sunderland and Durham, and will include funding for Durham County Council to improve the junction of the B1404 Seaton Lane and the B1285 Stockton Road.</p> more like this

answer text <p>The Government’s statutory Cycling and Walking Investment Strategy, published in April 2017, outlines £1.2 billion of funding that may be invested in cycling and walking over the period to 2021. Since its publication, the Government has made further support available for cycling and walking infrastructure, through the National Productivity Investment Fund, Transforming Cities Fund and Clean Air Fund. Decisions on allocating funding for cycle paths are for local authorities, including in coastal areas. Currently, there are no plans to provide dedicated funding for a national cycle path to run alongside the England Coast Path.</p><p> </p> more like this
