Question to the Department for Transport:
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, pursuant to the Answer of 23 November to Question 90730, if he will (a) publish and (b) place in the Library a copy of all responses by highway authorities to Question 5 in the last 12 months.
Most local authorities the Department allocates funding to as part of the highways maintenance incentive element funding process are in Band 3, based on their self-assessment response. Funding for authorities in receipt of City Region Sustainable Transport Settlements (CRSTS) no longer receive a separate incentive element and so are not included in the table.
The Department encourages all authorities that receive capital grant funding for highways maintenance to continually monitor those processes advised within the questionnaire to ensure best practice in highways maintenance continues to be carried out.
A breakdown of responses from the self-assessment in February 2022, from local highway authorities in England eligible for the highways maintenance incentive element, can be found in the table below:
