I believe it's just confirming that it will go in to the 2040 Transport Plan (rather than any concrete movement/funding)This statement.was included today in a series of announcements by the West Yorks Combined Authority.
Leeds
A commitment to a new Leeds Bradford Airport Parkway Train Station will serve the airport, making way for smoother transport for travellers, and for those commuting to work. This will further support Leeds Bradford Airport’s Vision 2030, backed by £200 million in private investment, to improve passenger experience as the airport reaches an anticipated seven million passengers a year by 2030 and the creation of up to 5,500 new jobs.
It refers to supporting the airport achieve its target of 7m pax by 2030, suggesting that the station will be open by then.I believe it's just confirming that it will go in to the 2040 Transport Plan (rather than any concrete movement/funding)

I’m not so sure….. In the detail https://www.westyorks-ca.gov.uk/media/2w2c5u0i/infrastructure-pipeline-march-2026.pdfIt refers to supporting the airport achieve its target of 7m pax by 2030, suggesting that the station will be open by then.

This is again listed as a future pipeline project and not on the list of the next projects for delivery …..No mention of a start date.


Yes - as I said they are included BUT as pipeline projects. They are not in the next list of projects to be delivered….Page 18 - The next big projects

Me neither based on WYCA track record of delivering infrastructure projects!I don't think I will live to see the Parkway station in operation.
I doubt it because LCC have already proposed to close Scotland Lane as a cut through which would be fine if they sorted out the main roads to the airport but they chose to can the link road.Just had a quick read of the new station after horsforth and before bramhope South portal and it will be used by commuters so no doubt Scotland Lane will get busier so double whammy for people on there!
