Just the ticket! Work is set to start on multi-million pound bus system improvements in Leeds
Plans for the sweeping range of road infrastructure improvements have been in the pipeline since the launch of the city's Connecting Leeds transport strategy a year ago.
Now civic chiefs have confirmed that work will begin in "the next few weeks" on an expansion of the park-and-ride site at Elland Road as well as improvements to routes including the A660 (Holt Lane) and A61 (Moortown Corner).

And, later in the year, work is set to begin on a dedicated bus lane and junction alterations that will cut journey times on the A647 Leeds to Bradford corridor.
