Question to the Department for Transport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what funding his Department has provided to support transport projects in (a) the East Midlands and (b) Nottinghamshire in the last three years.

In the East Midlands, over £3.2 billion of public money has been spent on transport in the last three years, improving connectivity, shortening journey times, reducing congestion, and transporting people, ideas and goods.

Figures are not available at the level of individual counties. However, in Nottinghamshire, recent Government investment includes £371m towards extensions to the Nottingham tram system, £8.5m towards the Hucknall Town Centre Improvement Scheme, and £5m towards maintenance on the A38 and A617 Mansfield Regeneration Route.
