Cardiff First Welsh Sustainable Travel Town

Cardiff First Welsh Sustainable Travel Town
Cardiff has been selected to become Wales' first "Sustainable Travel
Town" by the assembly government. The scheme worth UK £28.5 million aims to
provide free cycle hire, bus travel around the city centre, and improved bike and walking routes. The council hopes extend the project to other areas of Wales once an initial two-year plan is complete. http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/wales/7936127.stm

I wonder where lorries in the park fits into a sustainable travel! Time for a new look at how the roads are laid out or more pedestrians will be injured or killed in Cardiff - who would risk cycling at present with the city a petrol head dream with petrol head clllrs who park right outside the city hall!
