Please note that the funding covers National Highways' total expenditure during this period, covering both Capital and Resource spend. The total spent from December 2019 up to September 2022 is £12.7 billion.<\/p>
For local roads, highways maintenance and pothole funding is allocated to local highway authorities by formula and can be spent on any part of the highway including bridges and lighting, not just the road itself. Within the total figure stated below, for the spend in 2022/23 this includes the local highways formula funding that has been rolled into City Region Sustainable Transport Settlements (CRSTS) funding settlements. The total figure below also includes the Integrated Transport Block which is for small-scale transport improvements including safety, cycling and bus improvement measures; and bid based funding for specific projects including the Challenge Fund, Safer Roads Fund, Local Growth Fund, and the Major Road Network/Large Local Major Fund.<\/p>
For the complete financial years 2019/20 to 2021/22, plus the forecast spend for 2022/23, the total is £7.608 billion.<\/p>
The figures above don\u2019t include any discretionary funding that other Government Departments may have provided to local authorities for spending on local infrastructure.<\/p>"}
