SCRCA meaning in Governmental ?

The South Yorkshire Mayoral Combined Authority is the combined authority for South Yorkshire in England, with powers over transport (public transport and major trunk roads only), economic development and regeneration. It covers a total area of 3484 km² and is home to a population of 1.8 million. It includes the entirety of the metropolitan county of South Yorkshire. As well as the North East Derbyshire District, the Derbyshire Dales District, the Bassetlaw non-metropolitan District, Chesterfield non-metropolitan and the Bolsover non-metropolitan District as non-constituent members.

Whilst the combined authority covers the entire metropolitan county of South Yorkshire, it does not formally cover all of the Sheffield City Region as it does not include areas of northern Derbyshire and Nottinghamshire which are part of the city region. However the district councils of those areas of Derbyshire and Nottinghamshire are represented on the combined authority as non-constituent members.

The authority's first mayoral election took place on Thursday 3 May, coinciding with the 2018 United Kingdom local elections.

Between April 2014 and May 2018 the authority was known as the Sheffield City Region Combined Authority and then as the Sheffield City Region Mayoral Combined Authority between May 2018 and September 2021 when the present name was adopted.
