Episode Details

West Yorkshire is set to revolutionize its bus system with a £90 million investment in a new fleet called the Weaver Network, part of a broader plan to bring 250 new buses online. Taking control next year, the Combined Authority will directly manage schedules, pricing, and routes to build a seamless, integrated transport network linking buses with trains, bikes, and walking. Featuring electric buses and publicly owned depots, the mayor calls it “the pride of West Yorkshire.” Phased rollout begins in May 2027, with full franchising by late 2028 — and the big vote is this Thursday, July 30.
