The Government\u2019s Cycling and Walking Investment Strategy was published in April 2017, and sets out our plans to increase cycling and walking across England. The strategy aims to make cycling and walking the natural choices for short journeys or as part of a longer journey, and identifies £1.2 billion which may be invested in support of this over the five years from 2016/17 to 2020/21. Alongside the Strategy, the Government published guidance for local authorities to help them develop their own local Cycling and Walking Infrastructure Plans, and will be providing further support to local authorities to help them develop these plans.<\/p>"}

The Government\u2019s investment in track and signalling infrastructure as part of the Great North Rail Project, and additional train services to be delivered through the new Northern franchise, will bring significant benefits to Bradford by providing more and faster services with new connections to Manchester, Manchester Airport, Liverpool, Warrington, Chester, Sheffield and Nottingham by the end of 2019 - all operated with brand new trains. Furthermore, additional direct trains to London are planned by the Virgin Trains East Coast franchise.<\/p>
