The City Region Sustainable Transport Settlement (CRSTS) is aimed at providing an integrated and inclusive transport network and was made possible thanks to the West Yorkshire Mayoral devolution deal. In 2023, the Combined Authority was awarded additional funding from the Government's Levelling Up fund which will further build on the CRSTS programme.
Leeds Public Transport Investment Programme (LPTIP) is a multi-year programme delivered in partnership with Leeds City Council and public travel providers that aims to dramatically improve public transport and active travel across the Leeds.
The LEVI Fund supports local authorities in England to plan and deliver charging infrastructure for residents without off-street parking. West Yorkshire has been awarded £1.5 million of LEVI Pilot funding and £14.3 million of further LEVI Capital funding to install close to home residential chargepoints. This is in addition to over £1.5 million of Capability funding to support officers working on EV programmes.
The different authorities in the West Yorkshire are working together to ensure that West Yorkshire’s transport system connects people and places in ways that support the economy, the environment and quality of life.
The Fund is targeted at enabling key development areas and will help to create about 20,000 new jobs over the next 10 years. A number of strategic transport projects will be delivered to facilitate growth identified in the SEP.
