Car-free development is in cloud cuckoo land. Everywhere that the council has tried to reduce the number of parking spaces per dwelling, the result has been parking "wars" and discontent. Buses are NOT a solution to this, at least not until they are non-emitting and don't use diesel engines of any sort (biofuel is not mitigation of the stink they create, e.g. on St Andrew's Street).
