Govt announces money to bring London-style buses nationwide
The Government has announced how £1 billion in funding will be used to bring London-style buses to cities across the UK as part of a major Budget boost.
Transport Secretary Louise Haigh confirmed that £712 million will be allocated to local authorities to improve services, with an additional £243 million for bus operators.
Ms Haigh said that the investment aims to end the “complicated and inconsistent” funding models that have affected passengers for years.

As the deadline to prevent a government shutdown rapidly approaches, former President Donald Trump has dismissed a bipartisan agreement between Republicans and Democrats. Trump pushed for a controversial new deal that includes a three-month government funding extension and a two-year suspension of the debt ceiling, a proposal that was swiftly rejected by the House of Representatives. With crucial public services and federal workers at risk, Congress must act fast to avoid a shutdown. Will lawmakers come together in time to avert this crisis just days before Christmas?
