Justin Tomlinson MP has welcomed today’s announcement from the Transport Secretary, Chris Grayling, that Swindon is set to receive an additional allocation of £194,000 to enable Swindon Council to fix up to 3,700 potholes in 2017/2018.
This funding is in addition to the £2,489,000 the Department of Transport had already committed to providing in 2017 to 2018 to help repair local highways in Swindon.
Justin Said: “I agree with the Secretary of State for Transport that this investment will hopefully lead to quicker and safer journeys in Swindon and help to build a stronger local economy by linking people with jobs, and businesses with customers.”
