The Government is ploughing more than £16 million from the scrapped HS2 northern leg into boosting bus services in the West Midlands, it was announced today.
Rishi Sunak said he was delivering a"fairer and improved transport system" by putting £150 million across the country into bus services rather than the HS2 high-speed rail project.
The Government has now announced new funding for bus services in the Midlands and northern England in the first stage of a £1 billion investment plan. "This Government is taking the right long-term decisions to deliver on our vision for a fairer and improved transport system by investing billions back into the transport projects that matter most to people and their communities."
