The latest full year\u2019s verified data is in report 6 from obligation year 9 (2016/17). It shows that 1,541 million litres of renewable fuel was supplied, of which 49 per cent was bioethanol. This is a total of 758 million litres of bioethanol. Of this total amount, 218 million litres (29 percent) is produced from UK feedstocks, 429 million litres, (57 percent) is produced from feedstocks sourced from elsewhere in the EU, and 111 million litres (15 percent) is produced from feedstocks sourced from the rest of the world.<\/p>"}

The Inclusive Transport Strategy, strategy published on 25 July 2018, included a commitment to extend our Access for All programme across rail Control Period 6 (2019 to 2024) with an additional £300m of funding from the public purse.<\/p>
<\/p>
We have asked the industry to nominate stations for the new funding by 16 November this year. Nominated stations will be selected based on their annual footfall, weighted by the incidence of disability in the area. We will take into account local factors such as proximity to a hospital or the availability of third party funding for the project. We will also ensure that there is a fair geographical spread of projects across the country.<\/p>"}

The Government consultation on the use of section 19 and section 22 permits for road passenger transport in Great Britain closed on 4 May 2018. The consultation focused on proposals to ensure domestic legislation and guidance are aligned with EU Regulation 1071/2009 on road transport operators.<\/p>
<\/p>
An initial impact assessment looking at the impact on community transport providers, including charities, was published alongside the consultation. To help build a stronger evidence base in relation to the potential impacts of the proposals, the consultation requested information from those providing community transport services as to how they operate. This information, as well as respondents views on the draft guidance, will be considered by the Department when determining the final position. The Government\u2019s response on the outcome of the consultation is due to be announced in the autumn.<\/p>

The numbers of pedestrians killed in road accidents in Great Britain has increased slightly overall since 2010 (from 405 in 2010 to 448 in 2016). However, there has been some fluctuation in the number of pedestrians killed in the intervening years (for example, in 2013 the number killed was lower than in 2010 at 398).<\/p>
<\/p>
Earlier this year, the Department extended the cycle safety review to consider ways to improve pedestrian safety. Officials are currently analysing responses to the call for evidence, seeking views on ways to make walking and cycling safer while supporting the Government\u2019s ambition to increase take up and use.<\/p>
<\/p>
In June the Government announced its intention to deliver a more strategic approach to preventing deaths and serious injuries on our roads. The Department has a two-year action plan to address four priority user groups, including young people and older more vulnerable road users, who are at greater risk of being injured as a pedestrian compared to other age groups.<\/p>
<\/p>
The refreshed statement will be informed by early lessons from the new road collision investigation pilot - a £480,000 partnership between police forces and the RAC Foundation to trial an innovative approach to road collision investigation, carrying out more in-depth, qualitative analysis of the underlying causes of road safety incidents in order to get a better understanding of what is really causing collisions on UK roads.<\/p>"}
