A radio network node receives a data block to be transmitted by the radio network node towards a destination node. The data block is received over an upstream wireless backhaul from an upstream radio network node and/or is to be transmitted towards the destination node over a downstream wireless backhaul to a downstream radio network node. The radio network node determines a remaining delay budget that indicates a remaining portion of a delay budget for the data block to reach the destination node. The radio network node makes a decision about how or whether to transmit the data block, based on the remaining delay budget.
