Think I heard in one tv report, that other major cities in England will follow suit. They said they want to encourage more people to use public transport! Have you seen and smelt the crap coming out of most buses. Fair enough if all of their buses were hydrogen. I'd love to see a comparison of how much one of their current buses pollutes and compare it with equivalent number of passengers in cars. 40 passengers, so say 10 cars, obviously more congestion, given length of 10 cars to one bus, but the emissions? Don't see or read anything about their greener public transport policies, but then again, I don't buy/read "the papers" enough. Reeks of another money making scheme, thinly disguised as environmental assistance. Rant over.
