The redirection is incorrect[edit]

Hello - the redirection of South Yorkshire Passenger Transport Executive should be to South Yorkshire Mayoral Combined Authority, as the legal successor body. Travel South Yorkshire is just a brand name used by SYMCA, and SYPTE before that. Ideally, the old SYPTE page should be kept live in the same way that the Manchester, Sheffield and Lincolnshire Railway page and the Great Central page co-exist, even though they were the same company with a name change.

Hi,

I was following the example of West Yorkshire Metro which also was a brand of transport executive and is now part of the local authority.

I considered moving current information to SYMCA, but I thought that would either risk leaving the SYPTE page a stub or duplicate a lot of information.

I'll have a look at the example you gave and see how they structured things.

Another option I was considering was moving some of the information about general transport routes into a 'Transport in South Yorkshire' page, and refer to it from both SYMCA and SYPTE.

If you have any specific suggestions of what to do then I would be happy to hear them :)
