BSIP allocations for FY2025/26 announced by government
SHARE

Mayoral Combined Authority areas have been the biggest winners in FY2025/26 Bus Service Improvement Plan (BSIP) allocations in England, with seven of the 10 highest settlements to go to those bodies.

Monies are divided into capital and revenue streams, with each local transport authority (LTA) also to receive up to £125,000 as a capability and capacity allocation.

The eight large metropolitan areas that are part of the City Region Sustainable Transport Settlement (CRSTS) mechanism have been allocated no capital funding from the FY2025/26 BSIP round, but all bar the Tees Valley Combined Authority will gain eight-figure revenue sums.

Leading those is the Greater Manchester Combined Authority, which is allocated £43.8 million of revenue funding less the capability and capacity supplement. The second-biggest overall allocation is £40.6 million to the recently formed East Midlands Combined Authority, which is not part of CRSTS. That is split almost equally over capital and revenue.

The West Midlands Combined Authority – which is within CRSTS – will get £37.2 million as revenue less capability and capacity, placing it third highest among FY2025/26 BSIP overall allocations.

Of non-Combined Authority areas, Lancashire County Council will get the most with a cumulative allocation of £25.3 million. Kent County Council is to see £22 million, and Essex County Council will receive £16.6 million. Rutland County Council gets the least, at £560,000.

In total, £670,116,617 has been awarded to 75 LTAs. The remainder of the £712 million figure for those organisations cited by the government is made up of LTA BSOG allocations.

A combination of population, mileage and deprivation has been used in calculating BSIP capital and revenue funding allocations. Individual LTA combined totals in alphabetical order are:

andy burnham tfgm £15.6 billion (1) The funding announced by Chancellor Rachel Reeves today (4 June) has been allocated to several combined mayoral authorities to use on rail, tram, road and bus infrastructure. Transport for Greater Manchester revealed today that part of the £2.5 billion it will receive will go towards making the Bee Network fully battery-electric by 2030. An as-yet undecided portion of that will support a planned investment in 1,000 new zero-emission buses over that period, the mayoral authority said. That is part of plans to build the UK's "first fully integrated, zero-emission public transport system", with trams and trains also set to benefit. Liverpool City Region's already announced BRT system is among the projects to which its £1.6 billion will be allocated. Under those plans - due for realisation by 2028 - a high-speed network will be served by articulated buses which are modelled on the 'Glider' in Belfast. It is due to link Liverpool city centre with John Lennon Airport, and Liverpool FC and Everton FC's respective stadia along three routes. Although the model of bus has not been confirmed, a Van Hool Exqui.City on loan from Belfast was last year used as a demonstrator. That 18m vehicle can accommodate around 30% more passengers than a typical bus and has three sets of double doors. The funding will also go towards buses elsewhere in the city as the region heads towards franchising services by 2027. Liverpool Mayor Steve Rotheram with a 'Glider' which was on loan from Belfast last year - an example of the sort of bus which could serve the new BRT Bus services in the East Midlands region will be boosted by the funding, thanks to the £2 billion handed to it today by the government. Some of that allocation will be used for a rapid transit network on the Trent Arc between Nottingham and Derby. Between the two cities, the Freeport, Infinity Park Investment Zone and Ratcliffe-on-Soar will also benefit from the improved bus services. South Yorkshire Mayoral Combined Authority's newly announced commitment towards bus franchising has been boosted by £350 million in funding as part of that region's allocation. The funding for West Yorkshire will help build new bus stations in Bradford and Wakefield. Likewise, the Tees Valley Mayoral Authority will put its sum towards a new £15 million bus station in Middlesbrough. Transport Secretary Heidi Alexander says: "Today marks a watershed moment on our journey to improving transport across the North and Midlands – opening up access to jobs, growing the economy and driving up quality of life as we deliver our Plan for Change. "For too long, people in the North and Midlands have been locked out of the investment they deserve. With £15.6bn of government investment, we’re giving local leaders the means to drive cities, towns and communities forward, investing in Britain’s renewal so you and your family are better off."
