    Report author: Angela Barnicle/ Lee Arnell / Gareth Read Tel: 0113 378 7745 Report of the Director of City Development Report to Executive Board Date: 18th October 2017 Subject: Leeds Integrated Station Masterplan and Leeds City Region HS2 Growth Strategy Are specific electoral Wards affected? Yes No If relevant, name(s) of Ward(s): All Are there implications for equality and diversity and cohesion and Yes No integration? Is the decision eligible for Call-In? Yes No Does the report contain confidential or exempt information? Yes No If relevant, Access to Information Procedure Rule number: Appendix number: Summary of main issues 1. High Speed Two (HS2) has the potential to transform the economy of Leeds and Leeds City Region. However we will not realise the full benefits of HS2 unless we have a coherent and proactive plan for doing so. HS2 is part of a coherent strategy for rail improvements for the Leeds City Region, which includes upgrades of existing routes and services, and Northern Powerhouse Rail, a new fast east-west rail route across the North. 2. Improving and expanding Leeds Station is essential to ensure HS2 is integrated seamlessly with other rail services to create new rail capacity to support growth in Leeds, and to provide a high quality gateway to, and catalyst for, regeneration in the city. This paper seeks approval to the emerging proposals for a long term masterplan for Leeds Station. 3. It will also be important to ensure Leeds City Centre, and our people and businesses are HS2 ready. This paper also seeks approval
