To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what progress he has made on releasing funding for East Riding of Yorkshire Council from the Local Transport Fund.
Lilian Greenwood
Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Department for Transport), Government Whip, Lord Commissioner of HM Treasury
The Department of Transport pays local transport funding to Local Transport Authorities (LTAs). East Riding of Yorkshire council is a constituent authority of Hull and East Yorkshire Combined Authority, which acts as the LTA.
Hull and East Yorkshire Combined Authority will receive a total local transport settlement of £288,222,764 from the Department for Transport over the Spending Review period (2026/27 to 2028/29 for RDEL and 2029/30 for CDEL). This is paid as a single Mayoral Transport Fund, giving Hull and East Yorkshire the freedom and flexibility to support the strategic priorities of the local transport network.
