This is a policy that needs to be adopted throughout the city and even in some of the surrounding villages, as it could help to underpin a much better public transport network than we now have. There may need to be "contracts" to ensure that people who sign up to living carfree can be assured that their services will stay; in the stretch of Chesterton Road to the west, changes a few years ago reduced the frequency of buses from 15 per hour to just 3, and drastically cut the range of destinations served directly.
