Question to the Department for Transport:
To ask His Majesty's Government what percentage of the funding agreements for the railway industry announced by the Chancellor of the Exchequer on 4 June has been allocated for improved accessibility.
The Chancellor of the Exchequer announced the £15.6 billion Transport for City Regions settlements for 9 eligible mayoral strategic authorities on 4 June 2025. As a devolved funding programme, it is for local areas to decide how to allocate this funding to address their local transport priorities. The Government’s wider investment plans for transport, including rail, have been set out in the Spending Review.
