That's what the new mayor is planning on.

 

I agree it would be great for the region. We need to follow Andy Burnham's lead.

 

It being publicly owned is a Huge step forward in that respect 

There’s currently 3 trains a hour to Barnsley from Sheffield..02, 18 and 36 minutes past the hour. Can’t see the supertram being developed that far..too expensive.

IF we are genuinely wanting people to use public transport then we either have to find a way to get the old railway stations back open (I accept that won't work for them all) or develop the tram network further to enable major population centres to be served correctly.

 

What makes me mad around all of this is that London got the Jubilee line and there was not really any need but they got it anyhow

Infrastructure costs like this come from central government.

 

If the rest of the country can get it then so can we.

As I said this is what levelling up is for
