Highways England is working hard to deliver the improvements set out in the Roads Investment Strategy and in Highways England\u2019s Delivery Plan as quickly as possible. In the Yorkshire and North East region a number of schemes will be delivered on the A1 and the A19.<\/p>
Highways England is currently undertaking advanced surveys to inform and accelerate the development of these schemes where possible. These surveys include ecology, ground investigation, topographical and drainage surveys. Highways England will continue to work with the general public and with local councils and statutory bodies to identify potential opportunities to accelerate the works as the schemes develop.<\/p>"}

The Department for Transport (DFT) is currently in discussions with Nexus regarding their proposals for new rolling stock on the Metro. DfT and HM Treasury officials are working with Nexus to understand the business case for the replacement of the current fleet and exploring various funding options.<\/p>
<\/p>
The Department for Transport continues to support the Metro by providing £317m through the 10 year Asset Renewal Programme to 2021 which delivers significant investment in infrastructure, stations and rolling stock. This is in addition to the £25m we provide annually by way of revenue support to help fund the day to day operation of the Metro.<\/p>
