Link road plans for Leeds Bradford Airport will cost £75m www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-leeds-34803734A new link road connecting Leeds with the city's airport would cost around £75m, the city council claims. The council has drawn up three options for improving access to Leeds Bradford Airport. Building a new link road from the A65 between Rawdon and Horsforth, would cost £50m, whilst the cheapest option would be upgrading the existing route, costing about £15m. A public consultation will begin on 23 November and end on 24 January. The questionnaire will be available online and drop-in sessions will be held in Leeds, Horsforth and Rawdon, with a view to construction starting in 2019. 'Considerable difference' Councillor Richard Lewis said a new link road would help tackle congestion, delays and the use of rat-runs on the current road network.
