(asked on 11th January 2018) - View Source
Question to the Department for Transport:
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what steps his Department is taking to ensure that cities which do not have a metro mayor receive an appropriate allocation from the Transforming Cities Fund.
This question was answered on 16th January 2018
As the chancellor announced at Autumn Budget, half of the Transforming Cities Fund has been allocated to the Mayoral Combined Authorities on a per capita basis to allow mayors to take decisions on their transport priorities.
The remainder of the fund will be awarded to other major cities outside London via a competitive process. The details of this process will be announced shortly.
