The government said more than 100 UK projects would benefit from £2.1bn.

In total £14,316,988 will go to the Borough of Broxbourne for the Waltham Cross Renaissance project.

"By reaching even more parts of the country than before, we will build a future of optimism and pride in people’s lives and the places they call home."
