Tees Valley is made up of the five unique boroughs to create one remarkable region. Comprised of the local authority areas of Darlington, Hartlepool, Middlesbrough, Redcar & Cleveland, and Stockton-on-Tees. It's an area where the beauty of the countryside meets the serenity of the coast - an area united by a history of industry and innovation passed down from generation to generation. This is Tees Valley - where anything is possible.

Tees Valley Combined Authority has made huge progress since its creation seven years ago, taking on devolved responsibilities from Government. We are now driving forward the redevelopment of our transport network; revitalising training and education; boosting our businesses; championing culture, tourism, and supporting our boroughs in improving our towns and communities. These powers are backed up by substantial funding, with a ten-year Investment Plan.
