Connected town

Dewsbury has always been perfectly placed, with excellent transport links to major towns and cities including Leeds, Manchester and beyond. With investment going into making the town centre and its connecting routes safer and more accessible, public transport will be a better, more viable option for more people.

The West Yorkshire Combined Authority are undertaking a £23 million revamp of Dewsbury Bus Station , making it a more modern, comfortable and functional station.

The town will benefit from continued improvements to roads and traffic management, including routes linking Dewsbury to other local towns and villages, and close links to the M1 and M62.

Further investment through the multibillion-pound Transpennine Route Upgrade is also seeing improvements to Dewsbury Railway Station and to the key rail links connecting Dewsbury to main cities across the north.
