In the case of county councils, the block grant allocation may be used to supplement the local authority's own resources for the improvement, maintenance and management of regional roads and for improvement works on county roads.
The road grant commitments notified in 1986 include special grants totalling £782,000 in respect of works on regional and county roads. Expenditure incurred on foot of these commitments falls to be recouped from the allocation of £1,180,000 for "other specific improvement works".
