@sgconservatives @Elizabe46045399 @SavageToby1 @ToryPressSW @Conservatives Well done Liz, a great result. I know you'll do a graet job for everyone in Downend and Frenchay and be another excellent member of our South Glos Group.

Massive congratulations to Cllr Liz Bennan (@Elizabe46045399) for being elected to represent #Frenchay & #Downend in yesterday's by-election. Welcome to the Council!

I'm very pleased that I managed to squeeze in a factfinding tour to @TDI_transport as one of my last visits. It's incredible to see the potential of the very light rail system, the innovation that has gone into it and hear about how it could help get the West of England moving.

Fantastic to look around this new £7million #Brunel centre for high tech skills at @sgs_college in #Filton delivered with @MayorTimBowles @WestofEnglandCA It will provide more places locally to inspire the next generation of scientists, engineers, & creatives 👨‍🔬👩‍🏫🎒 @Samuel4WECA

Listen to our Bristol Mayoral Candidate @AlastairWatson5 as he speaks to @NeilMaggs2 well worth listening to and engaging in the conversation over the future if Bristol 👍🏽

We have developed a 10 Year Rail Delivery Plan in partnership with Network Rail and our councils. It sets out how we plan to transform rail travel in the region and includes new routes, step-free access at stations and more frequent ‘turn up & go’ services westofengland-ca.gov.uk/rail/

Excellent to be joining Mayoral colleagues from across the planet to share best practice around how to become a Smart City of the future, offering new opportunities and a better environment for residents.

Proud to represent the West of England at the @TPE_SmartCity Taiwan Smart City & Expo summit, presenting about our region's resilience, recovery and innovation during Covid. Another example of how in spite of the pandemic, we continue to promote the region around the world.

The @voitechnology e-Scooters are proving very successful. All our journeys matter, and my plan is to encourage a wide variety of transport options so we can all move around our region freely.

I was very pleased to see this arrive in the office this morning, and to fully stand by what it stands for.

I’m thrilled to see this scheme launch. It’s the first of its kind and will help make sure that we keep talented people in jobs in the West of England as we recover and renew our economy

#FutureBright shows the impact WECA has on lives and livelihoods across the region. National unemployment has risen during this challenging time. I share @MayorTimBowles commitment which falls within our 4 year £100m package to boost businesses and skills westofengland-ca.gov.uk/successful-car…
