Calderdale Council’s Cabinet Member for Regeneration and Economic Strategy, Coun Barry Collins, said: "We're still planning for the Calder and Hebble Junction project; the next step is to submit the planning application in the next couple of weeks. It will then be another year to 18 months for the project to be designed in detail and then construction will begin around early 2020."
The planned major upgrade of the A629 Calder and Hebble Junction has received funding through the West Yorkshire-plus Transport Fund, and the Leeds City Region Growth Deal – a £1 billion package of Government investment through the West Yorkshire Combined Authority and Leeds City Region Enterprise Partnership (LEP). This particular phase will cost £19m.
