  Yes please. At this point, we need local councils to lead this as it’s just impossible at a parent or school level. We need the infrastructure changes too as I can’t see us getting there without it. It takes just one car driver to enforce their right of way on a road if it’s just open

  Sure but I’d rather they make a commitment to proper bus services.

    why would you rather people go by bus than by bike or foot? It seems everything is better about safe bike & pedestrian routes - they are healthy, produce less pollution (both noise and fumes), often quicker, safer and more agreeable for residents, not to mention cheaper to maintain.
