flag UK to spend £7.3B on England’s roads, fixing 1M potholes yearly by 2030.

flag The UK government has pledged £7.3 billion over four years for local road repairs in England, the largest investment in local roads, aiming to fix an extra million potholes annually by 2030. flag Over £500 million in funding will be tied to transparency, requiring councils to publish pothole repair data to access funds. flag The move follows a decline in road conditions, with thousands of miles deteriorating since 2022. flag While transport groups welcomed the plan, opposition figures criticized broader policies, including proposed driving test changes and a pay-per-mile tax. flag The funding is part of a long-term strategy to improve road safety and reduce future repair costs.
