The Government’s planning White Paper, Planning for the Future, published in August, promises a completely new planning system in England that will be “simpler, clearer and quicker to navigate”. These are laudable... continue
Just a quick email to say thank you so much for getting the new LTT app organised. I’m sure it was incredibly... continue
When the policy train is travelling at a steady pace it can be hard to comprehend how things could ever grind to a halt or even go into reverse. Such has been the story with the devolution of transport and other powers from Whitehall over the last two decades, with the creation of the mayor of... continue
As you can probably tell, I struggled somewhat with how best to word the title of this piece. Be that as it may, what I want to do on this occasion is focus on the simple fact that there needs to be low traffic everywhere; and that this proposition needs to be central in all contemporary discourse... continue
It is a pity that you published Trevor Ellis’s claim that air pollution kills as many people as Covid-19 (Letters LTT 02 Oct). This is totally unsubstantiated scaremongering and a false allegation. ... continue

“Imagine there’s no railways And no buses too Below us only tarmac Above us we just fly It’s easy if you try” Apologies to John Lennon. We have been in this Covid situation for over six months now and will be for at least another six and very likely 12. The way we live has... continue
It’s good to see the ongoing discussion about... continue
