Councils in five English regions are set to share £374m to enable more housebuilding.

Among the last pre-election announcements was the latest round of Housing Infrastructure Fund projects.

Swindon, Wiltshire, Cornwall, North Somerset and Medway will share the £374m grant to unlock sites for up to 32,000 homes.

The money will go into providing site infrastructure such as roads, schools, public transport and utilities.
