Transport secretary Grant Shapps says Government is 'very keen' to 'kickstart' mass transit system in West Yorkshire
Transport secretary Grant Shapps says the Government is “very, very keen” to help “kickstart” a mass transit system for West Yorkshire.
West Yorkshire Combined Authority (WYCA) is planning to bid for a share of a £4.2bn Government transport fund next year, so it can build the mass transit system by 2040.
In a report, WYCA said light-rail, tram-train and prioritised routes for electric buses are being considered and “one or more” of those modes of transport could be used.
