As set out in the Transport Investment Strategy, from 2020/21 the Government has guaranteed that all revenue raised from Vehicle Excise Duty (VED) in England will be allocated to a new National Roads Fund. Road infrastructure is devolved to the Welsh Government, which will receive Barnett consequentials resulting from any spending from the Fund.
