£78.5m available for local sustainable transport 24 December 2013

Local authorities were yesterday (23 December 2013) invited to bid for a £78.5m slice of the Local Sustainable Transport Fund.

"We have seen some real success stories from previous winning schemes so I am looking forward to considering the plans that are put forward," stated minister for transport Baroness Kramer.

"Earlier successful schemes addressed a variety of sustainable transport measures and we saw significant changes in the way people travelled as a result," she continued.

"In the New Year I will be inviting local transport authorities to start preparing and developing their proposals."

Information about the application process, including the application form, will be published on the DfT website in the New Year.
