Nearly £22 million will be spent on improving transport in the City over the next 12 months.

The vast majority of the funding will come from central government and includes the work at 2 new park and ride sites.

Another government funded programme is aimed at helping cyclists and pedestrians, while the area bus fund could see more “off bus” ticket sales.

There is no mention in the programme of any contribution towards cashless ticketing on public transport in the City.

The plan does little to help suburban areas and even aging bus stop infrastructure faces further neglect.

However another £430,000 is to be spent on what seems to be an endless reorganisation of bus stops at the railway station.

£300,000 is allocated for the introduction of the unnecessary 20 mph speed limit in west York. Over 80% of residents in the area continue to oppose this plan.

Meanwhile road safety improvement expenditure is at an all time low of £150,000.
