Transforming Travel between Leeds & Wakefield District: A61 & A639
Wakefield Council and Leeds City Council, in partnership with the West Yorkshire Combined Authority, would like your feedback on proposed improvements to the A61 and A639 corridors.
In these public consultations we would like your feedback on initial proposals for a range of improvements to bus, walking and cycling facilities, which will help shape the development of more detailed plans.
Drop in events
We will be hosting 5 drop in events as part of these consultations which will provide the public with an opportunity to learn more about the proposals and to ask your own questions to the project team. There will be access to paper surveys where you can input your views on the proposals, or the project team can direct you to the online survey.
