A truly inspiring day at our #TimeforTrams event in Coventry. At times it was standing room only, as we heard from a stellar lineup of Mayors, MPs and industry leaders, councillors and campaigners, about the extraordinary potential of trams and light rail.

It's definitely #TimeforTrams in the North East, to give people access to efficient, reliable public transport beyond the area served by the Tyne and Wear Metro. Areas like the West End of Newcastle, Team Valley and Bensham in Gateshead, or Ryhope in Sunderland, trams would transform lives. Why not?

🚋Talking trams in Coventry today at our #TimeForTrams conference with Create Streets and Landor LINKS LIVE.

With renewed focus on mass transit, it's the perfect time to explore how we can make light rail quicker, cheaper and easier to deliver across the UK.

It's time to transform our transport network, create better connections and boost economic growth.

It's time for trams in West Yorkshire.🚊

Once a staple of British towns and cities, we say it's #TimeForTrams again!

We compared 3 French cities (which have trams) with 3 similar UK cities (which don't):

Dijon & Oxford
Bordeaux & Hull
Montpellier & Bournemouth

Could the UK cities have trams too, and what benefits would they bring? #TimeForTrams

Our findings were exciting! bettertransport.org.uk/blog/look-at...

Trams are popular, accessible & zero-emission. But while trams are common in France, there are only 9 tram networks in the UK.

Mildly interesting, some of the potholes in Leeds have gotten so bad they’ve revealed tracks from the old tram system. #Leeds #TimeForTrams #Transport

For the people of West Yorks, the #TimeForTrams is long overdue.

This delay is really regrettable, for all those people waiting for the transformation trams can bring.

We hope, though, that a closer partnership with Government will lead to a better scheme.

We're sharing our vision for a new tram network.🚊

This investment is part of our ambitious plans to help to unlock £11 billion of growth for the UK economy and could support our plans for the delivery of 60,000 new homes.

Let’s get spades in the ground by 2028.
