Today, we’re delivering hundreds of letters to councillors across West Yorkshire. We're asking them to support our call for a tram network that serves every part of the region, not just the Leeds-Bradford corridor. Help name the ten proposed tram lines here: forms.gle/TvBsGXUUUuAx...

The Liverpool City Region says it's testing a new rapid transit vehicle. But everyone else knows what this is: a bus. West Yorkshire's leaders are looking to sneak the same fudge in here too in Dewsbury, Bradford, Huddersfield, Halifax, Wakefield, and North Leeds.

If Greater Manchester can plan for an Underground... ... West Yorkshire can plan for a tram network beyond two city centre lines. Add your name for a FULL West Yorkshire tram network: www.megaphone.org.uk/petitions/br... www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/news/greater...

West Yorkshire Needs A Tram!

If we’re going to protect West Yorkshire communities from an economic recession, air pollution, and climate change, then we need a bigger, bolder, faster plan for a mass transit system.

🤔 Could this be what gets West Yorkshire a tram? Leeds is set to welcome the greatest number of ex-London civil servants of any city. Will the 2100 new workers miss the tube and decide to finally fund a massive transit system here? Via @robparsonsna.bsky.social

Text reads: Civil servants head. North Thousands of staff move from London to the regions.

The relative underperformance of West Yorkshire’s economy is a mystery…… We’ve spent £ 00’M s on not having a Tram and the opportunity cost is about a £Bn !!

In 2005 they cancelled the Leeds Supertram — imagine where the city would be if it had gone ahead...

You could more than TREBLE the number of tram routes planned for West Yorkshire with the money for the Lower Thames Crossing.

Someone labelled "Keir Starmer" looks around at person labelled "lower Thames crossing" while a third person, labelled northern towns begging for a tram, looks shocked at his behaviour.

Portland's tram helps slash emissions. West Yorkshire had a HUGE network for over 50 years. THIS is how we make transport work for everyone: people and planet. Sign the petition: www.megaphone.org.uk/petitions/br...

People living near a tram had a 65% lower carbon footprint.

Unsurprisingly to folk who follow pedestrianisation: A review of the data has shown that pedestrianisation of Shrewsbury Town Centre has increased footfall, increased the value of purchases made, and increased the profitability of businesses in pedestrian areas. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Keeping cars out of Shrewsbury town centre pushes up sales, research shows.
