How schemes in Keighley get decided.
One council for planning and highways
City of Bradford Metropolitan District Council handles both the planning application and the highways response, so we talk to its highways team early and give the case officer a clear answer. Bus services and wider transport plans are shaped by West Yorkshire Combined Authority, and good evidence reflects that.
What shapes schemes in Keighley
A town in the Aire valley, on the Airedale line and the A629 and A650, with older terraced streets and steep side roads. In the centre, the questions are servicing, parking and how people walk to the shops and the station. On the edges, it’s access, visibility and the main junctions.
Roads, rail and buses
The main roads are the A629 and A650. There’s a railway station, so the walking and cycling route to it counts for a lot in any application.
