i will continue to work with Highways to look at how future developments will impact on a already busy Belle Isle Road and look at developing a dedicated lane for the M621 to reduce conjestion.

I would develop and support youth provision in the area to develop their facilities further, including all local sports clubs and a Youth Centre in Middleton.

I will continue to campaign for improved playgrounds for OUR children and work to develop more safe play areas.

I will continue to campaign about the potential for Middleton to have its own railway station. We are surrounded by railway lines and a station would benefit OUR area and other surrounding areas offering more jobs and a better commute to Leeds City Centre. This will also reduce pollution in the City.

I will work with developers to ensure that all new developments take into consideration the knock on effects on our roads, schools, health services and other public services in our area, but still offer local jobs for local people.
