The Department for Transport has published the list of 80 councils sharing £40m to upgrade traffic signals.

The cash comprises £20m under the Traffic Signals Obsolescence Grant (TSOG) to replace unreliable and obsolete equipment and £20m from the Green Light Fund (GLF) to tune up traffic signals to better reflect current traffic conditions.

A further £10m for TSOG cash is being distributed automatically to all eligible English local highway authorities using the Integrated Transport Block allocation grant formula.

The winners of the £40m were were (the list is here) published after Mark Harper ‘confirmed’ the funding on Sunday (17 March).
