Post by: Sixty3Closure on March 18, 2024, 23:17:15 Very interesting article. Seems to be a more detailed version of the more roads you build the more cars you get.
Its a bit vague on the public transport options though. Would more buses reduce car use although it seems to imply that the radial design means probably not. I did read in an article about the building work that the new bridges actually provide pedestrian and cycle routes over the M25 which it implied didn't really exist before. Was there really no way to cross other than by driving on it? This page is printed from the "Coffee Shop" forum at http://gwr.passenger.chat which is provided by a customer of Great Western Railway.
