Councils across the North West are to get an extra £19 million from the government for pothole repairs and resurfacing schemes this year - matching the additional amount they received last year.
The cash is coming from the money saved by the decision last year to scrap the northern leg of the HS2 rail line between Birmingham and Manchester - £1.2bn of which will come to the North West. As a condition of the new pothole funding - and to make sure money is being spent on pothole repairs - local authorities are required to publish a two year plan detailing exactly which local roads will benefit.
” Having submitted their first reports last month, councils in the North West will now also be required to submit quarterly reports from June, announcing work which has taken place over three months, meaning residents will now regularly be able to scrutinise the progress their local authority is making to tackle potholes.
