  • Appendix A: Leeds City Region Growth Fund Deal Sheet
    APPENDIX A: LEEDS CITY REGION GROWTH FUND DEAL SHEET 1 2 INTRODUCTION We are pleased to provide this outline summary of the 2015-16 deliverable priority projects and programmes that we have included in the Leeds City Region SEP for funding through the Local Growth Fund (LGF). We see the LGF being the opportunity for Government to co-invest with us to deliver our economic and growth ambitions. The identification of these projects is the culmination of at least 6-9 months appraisal processes (over 2 years in the case of the West Yorkshire Plus Transport Fund) where we have applied significant rigour to reduce the range of projects from very long ‘wish lists’ to a focussed number of specific and deliverable projects across transport, innovation, skills, resource smart, housing and regeneration. This has included, for example, applying a Department for Transport approved modelling process for Transport Projects, and the five cases Treasury Green Book compliant approach to the appraisal of our housing and regeneration schemes. We have provided more detailed business cases within the accompanying appendices as requested for each deliverable project, which has included financial and economic appraisal output tables and risk assessments. Projects have been assessed and subsequently re-assessed for deliverability, economic impact and strategic fit in partnership with all City Region authorities and other project sponsors and co-investors. The resultant shortlist of projects and programmes for 2015/16 set out in our SEP and summarised here therefore has both political endorsement across the City Region partnership including the LEP Board. The LEP Board is therefore confident that the projects and programmes it is submitting in this SEP submission are both viable and deliverable, and offer value for money and will have a major strategic impact on city regional and UK growth.

As part of this approval the Department will provide a maximum capped funding contribution of £4.911m towards an estimated total scheme cost of £6.266m. North East Lincolnshire Council is solely responsible for meeting any expenditure over and above this maximum amount. Funding will be paid as capital grant under Section 31 of the Local Government Act 2003. I will write to your Chief Finance Officer shortly with a formal letter of grant under Section 31 of the Local Government Act 2003. For the above scheme the Department is prepared to make available the following funding profile: 2014/15 - £2.715m 2015/16 - £2.196m Every effort should be made to avoid slippage in 2014/15 as the new funding arrangements for funding schemes through the Local Growth Fund will make it very difficult for us to increase our contribution in 2015/16 and beyond. However, if there is any possibility of adjusting profiles to increase spend in 2014/15 (with a corresponding reduction in future years), we would be happy to consider this.

  • When I Recently Gave Evidence Before the Transport
    Supplementary written evidence from the Department for Transport (AES 01) When I recently gave evidence before the Transport Select Committee about the transport elements of the Autumn Statement, I promised to come back to you and the Committee on a number of points. Please find further clarification on these below: The timetable of Southern's procurement of additional vehicles Southern issued an Invitation To Tender in September to procure additional vehicles to enable it to deliver its December 2013 timetable. The deadline for bids was 16th November. Since then, commercial discussions between the train operating company and the bidders have continued in order to agree an acceptable, value for money position before they move to preferred bidder status. If such a position can be achieved, my Department will be progressing commercial discussions With the operator on any required changes to their Franchise Agreement in light of this procurement. Trans Pennine electrification and the Northern Hub The Northern Hub has been developed from a base of today's diesel-operated network and takes account of the slower acceleration and line speeds of older suburban diesel trains. Electrification of the North West Triangle between Manchester, Leeds and Preston, and now of the north Trans Pennine route between Manchester, Leeds and York, has changed the way the railway in the north will operate. Faster electric suburban trains are likely to replace the older diesel trains and changes to service routes and calling patterns may offer more efficient alignment of train capacity against demand. This has changed the base assumption of the Northern Hub.

  • Leeds Transport Plan
    Transport CONTENTS Strategies and initiatives Transport links Strategies & Initiatives Leeds City Region ‘West Yorkshire Plus’ Transport Fund Targeted investment in transport has the potential to unlock significant economic growth in our City Region. Decades of under-investment means that the capability of the network has not kept pace with economic and population growth leading to problems of delays, congestion and crowding which will hamper future economic growth unless they are addressed. The Leeds City region partnership is working to secure greater local control over transport spending and decision-making, The Leeds City Deal with government was confirmed in July 2012, creating an opportunity for Rail Devolution, and the proposal to create a £1billion ‘West Yorkshire Plus’ Transport Fund’ to invest in transport in West Yorkshire and York over the next decade. In July 2014, the Leeds City Region secured £1 billion in July 2014 some of which will fund the Strategic Economic Plan and the West Yorkshire + Transport Fund, and help drive economic growth in the region The transformational schemes that have been identified for further development and investment are: Electrification and upgrade of all core rail routes Rail or tram train connections between Leeds and Bradford to Leeds Bradford International Airport Enhancing the quality of the local rail network through the outputs of the Yorkshire Rail Network Study including the restoration of the Wortley Curve to provide better links to Bradford from the East Coast Main Line, Wakefield and Sheffield Preparing the local rail network for High Speed Rail Expansion of the initial NGT trolleybus network to provide a core ‘rapid transit’ network for West Yorkshire Full upgrade of the strategic motorway network A number of Core Projects, listed below have been identified for Leeds.
