What is Transforming Cities?

In 2020, Southampton City Council received approval from the Government when it gave the green light to progress a programme of transport improvements, funded through the Department for Transport’s Transforming Cities Fund.

Southampton City Council and Hampshire County Council submitted a joint bid in November 2019 for Southampton and Hampshire and were awarded £57m of Government funding towards the total £68.5m project, covering the three years to March 2024. The remainder of the funding is coming from local match contributions with the Council and its partners.
