Talking Transport: tell us your views and hear our plans!

Come along to a Talking Transport meeting: tell us what you think, ask questions and hear the latest news about transport plans in your area.

We know that some places are harder or more expensive to get to than they should be. Travel information and fares can be too complicated as well. We want to hear your travel experiences to help inform our decision-making.

Our new Talking Transport meetings will take place twice a year for each local authority, bringing together people who shape the way transport works in your area. You’ll get to hear what we’re doing to improve transport, locally and across West Yorkshire, and to ask questions and share your experiences.

Meetings are led by local Councillors who have responsibility for transport, in partnership with us (the West Yorkshire Combined Authority) and your local authority (Bradford, Calderdale, Kirklees, Leeds or Wakefield). Operators of transport services in each area are also invited to join the meetings and answer any questions about their services.

Our first in-person Talking Transport meetings will happen in early 2025. There will also be one West Yorkshire-wide online meeting (webinar) in February. You can find more details below. If you’d like to join us, please let us know in any of the following ways:
