Significant investment in the city over the next 10 years, with developments to build new homes and attract more well-paid jobs to the city, means we're working on York's transport and travel network to make improvements to roads, footpaths and cycle ways, and to increase safety measures in the city centre.
We're providing information on our major transport projects to help you plan journeys in advance, and understand any impact on your travel routes.
