Plans for better connectivity between West and South Yorkshire
The Mayors for each region are developing ideas together
Tracy Brabin, the Mayor for West Yorkshire has met with Dan Jarvis, the Mayor for South Yorkshire to develop ideas to better connect the two regions.
What's being discussed?
Economy and visitor economy
Connectivity between South and West Yorkshire
Growing a creative and cultural offer in Yorkshire
Tracy Brabin said:
"It's astonishing to realise that 35 thousand people cross between South and West Yorkshire a day.
"So there's a whole community of people that we can serve and support, by making sure that transport link is better.
"We are amplifying our offer across the country and saying this is where you're going to get the skilled workforce, this is where the ideas are, this is where the music is, the film, the TV, but also it's an opportunity to talk about regeneration."
