Department for Transport written question – answered at on 4 June 2018.
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, how much money was spent from the public purse on subsidised bus routes in Warrington in each year since 2010.
Up until 31 December 2013 Bus Service Operators Grant (BSOG) was paid directly to bus operators and wasn’t split between commercially run or subsidised bus services. We are therefore unable to provide figures for this period. From 1 January 2014 local authorities have received funding equivalent to the level of BSOG which would otherwise have been paid to operators for running subsidised services. Details of the amounts paid to local authorities each year can be found on the “Payments to Local Authorities” tab on the relevant spreadsheets published on the .gov website.
