Challenge fund: Tranche 2A
The Local Highways Maintenance Challenge Fund was first announced in the 2014 Autumn Statement. Following a competition in 2015, Tranche 1 was launched and, with additional schemes added in the summer of 2015, 34 schemes were funded.
The first element of Tranche 2 (£75 million) will be funded in 2017/18. The Challenge Fund reflects the government’s strong commitment to ensure that we have well maintained local highway infrastructure fit for the 21st century.
