The Mode Shift Revenue Support (MSRS) has been extended and will now expire 31 March 2026. The Waterborne Freight Grant (WFG) will also expire on 31 March 2026.

DfT is considering options for the longer-term future of both MSRS and WFG. We will continue to use the evidence collected to support development of longer-term options.

Original call for evidence

Call for evidence description

The Mode Shift Revenue Support (MSRS) and Waterborne Freight Grant (WFG) have remained relatively unchanged since their inception due to adherence to EU state aid rules.

Their upcoming expiry means any new schemes will be introduced under the UKs new domestic subsidy control regime, theSubsidy Control Act 2022, which offers an opportunity to introduce more flexible policies in line with government priorities.

This review explores the potential for any successor scheme(s) to address any issues and challenges identified. The roles of schemes in achieving environmental benefits will be an important issue in the consideration of what approach to take.

We invite stakeholders, experts and other interested parties to contribute their insights and evidence to inform this process.
