6 days agoGovernment sets date for nationalisation of Great Western Railway
Great Western Railway services will be nationalised from 13 December under the Government’s Great British Railways programme.
The government committed 7.3bn in November's Budget to fix roads over the next four years. The DFT rated 154 local highway authorities as red, amber or green based on road conditions and how well they were using government funds. The vast majority were rated as amber, meaning they were patching up roads and had preventative measures in place but there was still room for improvement.
