I’ve lived in Leeds since coming here for Uni in 2000, and talk about trams comes and goes and nothing ever progresses.

Bradford to Leeds seems like such an odd one to start with considering those cities are already connected reasonably well with the train.
What Leeds needs is more of a link between the city centre and its surrounding towns and suburbs.

Obviously the Uk desperately needs more regional public transport in places that aren’t London.
But that’s an obscene timeframe. Three years before they can even _start_ construction. No-wonder it costs so much to deliver infrastructure projects in this country.

Then they will distribute that £1bn to various CEOs and executives of these companies and agencies (while MPs invest in their stocks), make a performative and deliberately failed attempt at building the tram network, pocket the cash with no refunds, and congratulations; leed and/or Bradford have just successfully lost £1bn. Corruption; a story as old as time.
