HC Deb 17 December 1990 vol 183 c59W
Ms. Ruddock

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport if he will provide a detailed breakdown of how the extra £3 billion available for investment to London Regional Transport is to be allocated; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Freeman

Government grant to London Transport will be nearly £2.5 billion over the next three years. This should allow LT to invest approaching £3 billion over the same period. Of the grant, £748 million is allocated to the Jubilee line extension and £164 million to the east-west crossrail. LT has yet to decide how it wishes to allocate the remainder.
