Council secures £206m transport funding

Wiltshire Council has secured more than £206 million in government funding to improve transport across the county.

The funding, agreed with the Department for Transport, will be invested over four years from 2026 to 2030.

Plans include road maintenance and resurfacing, support for local bus services, and improvements to walking, cycling and wheeling routes.

The investment will also fund greener transport initiatives, including electric vehicle charging infrastructure.

Council leaders say the funding provides long-term certainty and will help deliver safer, more sustainable transport for communities across the county.
