Tens of millions of pounds will be invested into transport improvements across West Yorkshire as the region prepares for the arrival of the new Weaver Network buses next year.

Distinctive green Weaver buses are on their way to the region's roads as Mayor Tracy Brabin brings public transport back under public control for the first time in nearly 40 years, and under the new franchised system, the West Yorkshire Combined Authority will manage bus routes, frequencies, fares and standards.
