Freight: Finance
(asked on 14th December 2023) - View Source
Question to the Department for Transport:
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, if he will list the total value of mode shift revenue support granted to operators of intermodal freight transport services (a) to and (b) from ports in each financial year from 2014-15 to 2022-23.
The total value of Mode Shift Revenue Support grant awarded to operators for intermodal flows to and from ports (for years data is currently available) is as follows:
Financial Year | Total Value |
2019/20 | 14,465,869 |
2020/21 | 18,734,640 |
2021/22 | 18,259,533 |
2022/23 | 16,422,410 |
The table above contains total grant awarded for each financial year. Please note that the actual grant paid out may differ as not all awards are claimed by grantees due to variations in the movement of freight. Grants are awarded for volumes moved to and from ports and the DfT does not differentiate claims for payments based on the direction of the journey.
Details of previous Mode Shift Revenue Support awards are publicly available in the “Grants Awarded” section at:

Please note that the published data does not distinguish ports from domestic flows.
