INNOVATIVE INFRASTRUCTURE DELIVERY
Creating a catalyst for regeneration and unlocking
investment opportunities
Leeds Railway Station
INTRODUCTION
Leeds is at the centre of the Northern Powerhouse and its
station is the busiest transport hub in the North, already
used by almost 30 million people a year, with connections to
our other major cities and towns.
Leeds has delivered innovative infrastructure and
enhancements to contribute to the wider regeneration of
the city, unlocking new developments, economic areas and
creating future investment opportunities.
New infrastructure investment has reinvented spaces for
commercial activity, grown our key sectors and created the
opportunity to invest in smart technology, create modern
attractive environments and build green infrastructure.
This document summarises innovative infrastructure
delivery in Leeds, creating a catalyst for regeneration and
unlocking investment opportunities in the city.
