The National Productivity Investment Fund (NPIF) will allocate £690 million to local authorities in England for local transport networks through a competition which is due to be launched shortly. Local authorities and Combined Authorities (such as Liverpool City Region which includes St Helens) will have the opportunity to bid for funding for schemes to improve congestion on local roads.
