My Plan for Keighley

Keighley is receiving £33.6m as part of our Town Deal from our Conservative government to make our community an even better place to live as we recover from the COVID-19 pandemic.

We’ve secured improvements to the A650 at Hard Ings Road, now I’ll make sure that they’re completed and we get more action to tackle crippling congestion across Keighley, such as using the space on North Street and East Parade more effectively, so traffic can get by at peak times.

Keighley desperately needs a vibrant town centre, so I’ll work with businesses to bring empty shops back into use on Cavendish Street and North Street.

Working together with the police and the community we can cut crime. I’ll make sure we get a fair share of extra resources from the 20,000 more officers being recruited; and we’ll give them the tools they need to fight crime.

Young people deserve the best start in life, so I’ll work with parents and teachers to make sure local schools have the facilities they need to raise standards.
