How often do you hear of cuts due to lack of money. Its all bollocks because there are millions of pounds available from local and national government for all sorts of ridiculous schemes. Trolley busses in Leeds are just the tip of the iceberg.
Now there is a plan to spend £30,000,000 (Yes 30 million pounds) on a cycle route connecting Leeds to Bradford.

If the cost alone is not a shock the plan also calls for speed limits in surrounding area to be reduced to 20 MPH. This is being described as a legacy of the Tour de France to encourage cycling.
Its only a start, and shows the power of the green lobby, its only a mater of time before the dales have a reduced speed limit, or even a reduced national limit.
