The Chancellor has vowed to pump cash into the country's major highways, which have fallen into a state of disrepair after a 'scorching summer and harsh winter'. The pledge, unveiled in today's Budget, makes good on a promise made by the ex Tory Chancellor George Osborne to find the extra cash for roads. It is the single biggest cash injection in the country's largest roads and will be paid for by money raised from Vehicle Excise Duty. This will be the first time ever that ‘road tax’ raised in England will only be spent on roads.
