demanded [link widoczny dla zalogowanych], We are investing in every part of the country and the government is production 724m available to zones with major transport schemes this annual, as well for investing a beyond 672 million.
I dont think it is true to say that transport spending has been skewed to one particular area. In every part of the country we are spending (on) transport according to the needs of these different areas.
The Liberal Democrats of Leeds North West said [link widoczny dla zalogowanych], It is amusing apt listen namely Gordon Brown thinks his Government allocates transport spending along to need.
Well he should come to the Leeds place in rush hour and sit in the vehicle jams on our roads alternatively attempt to squeeze onto out trains then he would realise what we need which is real investment on transport and a fair handle compared to additional areas.
Critics of the government assert that the disparity is also apparent with the concert to bankroll Londons 16bn Crossrail system
This was looked as a direct snub to Leeds as they had already refused to fund the Leeds Supertram.
Concerns were also raised over the disparity in funding for roads and rail funding between Yorkshire and the repose of the country.
During 2006/07, 104 was allocated per human in West Yorkshire [link widoczny dla zalogowanych], the disagreement is perceptible in transport spending aboard London with each human being allocated 399.
Both Labour and Liberal Democratic parties in Leeds coincide that Gordon Brown persistently ignores the plight of the commuters in West Yorkshire.
However the Prime Minister insisted Leeds transport network was not in need of great investment.
He explained that entire monies dispensed to Leeds, was more than ample as the development of its transport networks.
