Details

The CMA has responded to the West Yorkshire Combined Authority Bus Reform Consultation led by the West Yorkshire Combined Authority (WYCA).

The CMA is a statutory consultee on bus franchising proposals in England. Franchising has the potential to deliver significant benefits to the WYCA region, the CMA’s response explores these benefits as well as highlighting potential competition risks and mitigations to WYCA’s proposals. The response to this consultation builds on the CMA’s views on set out in its responses to the Greater Manchester Combined Authority and the Liverpool City Region Combined Authority bus franchising consultations.

For queries relating to the CMA’s response, please contact the CMA advocacy team by email at advocacy@cma.gov.uk.
