Three stories in brief, and the Government has pledged £3.9 billion for a rail project
00:06
to improve connectivity in northern England. The investment will see faster journeys between
00:11
Leeds, Huddersfield, York and Manchester. It comes after the HS2 link between Birmingham
00:16
and Manchester was scrapped.
00:18
Next, staying with the railways, as the number of dangerous attacks on trains operated by
00:23
Northern is down almost 90% in the last 12 months. The number of recorded incidents this
00:29
year has been 8 compared with 69 last year. Northern have added a further 600 CCTV cameras
00:36
to deter and capture crime.
00:38
And finally, Leeds' Kirkgate Market now has stoma-friendly toilets after a campaign by
00:43
a woman who was upset by the lack of facilities in the city centre. Leeds City Council have
00:48
installed a shelf and mirror to help those with stomas following Lynne Morgan's campaign.
