We have recently invested £160million in improving rail services in West Yorkshire through the Leeds Capacity Scheme, to increase reliability, reduce overcrowding, and to give a better travel experience for passengers.

More widely, we want to provide as much clarity and certainty as possible on other future rail enhancements and will set out our plans shortly.
