Councillor Roger Lawrence presented a report that set out the approach for allocating the Devolved Transport Grant for 2018/19 and outlined the indicative allocations to 2020/21.

The allocation of the consolidated local transport budget for 2018/19 was expected to be £35.261m and the report identified its allocation between Integrated Transport Block, Highways Maintenance Block, Highway Incentive Fund and Bus Service Operator Grant. There was no proposal to adjust the percentage allocations upon which the Integrated Transport Block was distributed across local authorities.
